- Gosset 1 22 polytope
In 6-dimensional
geometry , the 122 polytope is auniform polytope , related to the 221 polytope, also constructed from the E6 group. It is named byCoxeter as 122 by its bifurcatingCoxeter-Dynkin diagram , with a single ring on the end of the 1-node sequence.It is also one of a family of 39 convex
uniform polytope s in 6-dimensions, made ofuniform polytope facets andvertex figure s, defined by all permutations of rings in thisCoxeter-Dynkin diagram ::See also
