Abstract: By proving the minimality of face transformations acting on the diagonal points and searching the points allowed in the minimal sets, it is shown that the regionally proximal relation of order $d$, $R{P}^{[d]}$, is an equivalence relation for minimal systems. Moreover, the lifting of $R{P}^{[d]}$ between two minimal systems is obtained, which implies that the factor induced by $R{P}^{[d]}$ is the maximal $d$-step nilfactor. The above results extend the same conclusions proved by Host, Kra and Maass for minimal distal systems. A combinatorial consequence is that if $S$ is a dynamically syndetic subset of $$, then for each $dge1$, ${\displaystyle }${(n_1,...,n_d)in �^d: n_1ep_1+... +n_dep_din S, ep_iin {0,1}, 1le ile d}${\displaystyle }$ is syndetic. In some sense this is the topological correspondence of the result obtained by Host and Kra for positive upper Banach density subsets using ergodic methods.
