Is there a name for the figure
$$\{{\bf x} \in \Bbb R^n : ||{\bf x}||_1 = 1\} \subset \Bbb R^n ?$$
Things like this seem to usually have names, for instance, the $n$-cube or $n$-ball.
In $2$ dimensions it would simply be (the boundary of) a rotated square, and in $3$ dimensions a suitably positioned octahedron with 'radius' $1$.
The $n$-dimensional generalization of an octahedron is called cross-polytope.
