We present a formula which evaluates lower degree monomials over higher dimensional simplices by means of integration of higher degree monomials over an interval, triangle or tetrahedron. Further, we show how to apply some higher order quadrature formulae on curved elements using a one-to-one mapping from the reference simplicial element to a curved element.Finally, we demonstrate that the non-zero Jacobian does not imply that this mapping is one-to-one.
