5-cubic Honeycomb - Related Polytopes and Honeycombs

Related Polytopes and Honeycombs

The, Coxeter group generates 63 permutations of uniform tessellations, 35 with unique symmetry and 34 with unique geometry. The expanded 5-cubic honeycomb is geometrically identical to the 5-cubic honeycomb.

The 5-cubic honeycomb can be alternated into the 5-demicubic honeycomb, replacing the 5-cubes with 5-demicubes, and the alternated gaps are filled by 5-orthoplex facets.

It is also related to the regular 6-cube which exists in 6-space with 3 5-cubes on each cell. This could be considered as a tessellation on the 5-sphere, an order-3 penteractic honeycomb, {4,3,3,3,3}.

Famous quotes containing the word related:

    Just as a new scientific discovery manifests something that was already latent in the order of nature, and at the same time is logically related to the total structure of the existing science, so the new poem manifests something that was already latent in the order of words.
    Northrop Frye (b. 1912)
