Conway Snub Operator
In geometry and topology, Conway polyhedron notation, invented by John Horton Conway and promoted by George W. Hart, is used to describe polyhedron, polyhedra based on a seed polyhedron modified by various prefix operation (mathematics), operations. Conway and Hart extended the idea of using operators, like Truncation (geometry), truncation as defined by Kepler, to build related polyhedra of the same symmetry. For example, represents a truncated cube, and , parsed as , is (topology, topologically) a truncated cuboctahedron. The simplest operator Dual polyhedron, dual swaps Vertex (geometry), vertex and Face (geometry), face elements; e.g., a dual cube is an octahedron: . Applied in a series, these operators allow many higher order polyhedra to be generated. Conway defined the operators (ambo), (bevel), (Dual polyhedron, dual), (expand), (gyro), (join), (kis), (meta), (ortho), (Snub (geometry), snub), and (Truncation (geometry), truncate), while Hart added (Reflection ...
