- Gosset 1 32 polytope
In 7-dimensional
geometry , 132 is auniform polytope , constructed from the E7 group. It is named byCoxeter as 132 by its bifurcatingCoxeter-Dynkin diagram , with a single ring on the end of the 2-node sequence. It is related to the 321 polytope, discovered byThorold Gosset in 1900.It is also one of a family of 127 (27 − 1) convex
uniform polytope s in 7-dimensions, made ofuniform polytope facets andvertex figure s, defined by all permutations of rings in thisCoxeter-Dynkin diagram ::This polytope can tessellate 7-dimensional space, with symbol 133, and
