Uniform 5-honeycomb
In six-dimensional geometry, a uniform 6-polytope is a six-dimensional uniform polytope. A uniform polypeton is vertex-transitive, and all facets are uniform 5-polytopes. The complete set of convex uniform 6-polytopes has not been determined, but most can be made as Wythoff constructions from a small set of symmetry groups. These construction operations are represented by the permutations of rings of the Coxeter-Dynkin diagrams. Each combination of at least one ring on every connected group of nodes in the diagram produces a uniform 6-polytope. The simplest uniform polypeta are regular polytopes: the 6-simplex , the 6-cube (hexeract) , and the 6-orthoplex (hexacross) . History of discovery * Regular polytopes: (convex faces) ** 1852: Ludwig Schläfli proved in his manuscript ''Theorie der vielfachen Kontinuität'' that there are exactly 3 regular polytopes in 5 or more dimensions. * Convex semiregular polytopes: (Various definitions before Coxeter's uniform category) ** 1900: ...

List Of Regular Polytopes
This article lists the regular polytopes and regular polytope compounds in Euclidean, spherical and hyperbolic spaces. The Schläfli symbol describes every regular tessellation of an ''n''-sphere, Euclidean and hyperbolic spaces. A Schläfli symbol describing an ''n''-polytope equivalently describes a tessellation of an (''n'' − 1)-sphere. In addition, the symmetry of a regular polytope or tessellation is expressed as a Coxeter group, which Coxeter expressed identically to the Schläfli symbol, except delimiting by square brackets, a notation that is called Coxeter notation. Another related symbol is the Coxeter-Dynkin diagram which represents a symmetry group with no rings, and the represents regular polytope or tessellation with a ring on the first node. For example, the cube has Schläfli symbol , and with its octahedral symmetry, ,3or , it is represented by Coxeter diagram . The regular polytopes are grouped by dimension and subgrouped by convex, nonconve ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
6-orthoplex
In geometry, a 6-orthoplex, or 6-cross polytope, is a regular 6-polytope with 12 vertices, 60 edges, 160 triangle faces, 240 tetrahedron cells, 192 5-cell ''4-faces'', and 64 ''5-faces''. It has two constructed forms, the first being regular with Schläfli symbol , and the second with alternately labeled (checkerboarded) facets, with Schläfli symbol or Coxeter symbol 311. It is a part of an infinite family of polytopes, called cross-polytopes or ''orthoplexes''. The dual polytope is the 6-hypercube, or hexeract. Alternate names *Hexacross, derived from combining the family name cross polytope with ''hex'' for six (dimensions) in Greek. * Hexacontitetrapeton as a 64- facetted 6-polytope. As a configuration This configuration matrix represents the 6-orthoplex. The rows and columns correspond to vertices, edges, faces, cells, 4-faces and 5-faces.
