In an n-dimensional competitive Lotka–Volterra system on Rn+ the carrying simplex Σ is the invariant (n−1)-dimensional surface, homeomorphic to the standard unit simplex, that attracts all non-zero orbits and carries the asymptotic dynamics (Hirsch M W 1988 Nonlinearity 1 51–71, Zeeman M L 1993 Dynam. Stab. Sys. 8 189–217). We show that the one-dimensional edges of Σ (as sets) generically determine the system up to multiplication by a scalar, and hence determine Σ and the phase portrait.
