- 8-polytope
Three are based on the uniform
6-polytope s and regular polygons:Uniform duoprismatic forms
There are 28 categorical uniform
duoprism atic forms based onCartesian product s of lower dimensional uniform polytopes.There are 4 based on the uniform
6-polytope s and regular polygons:Uniform triprismatic forms
There are 11 categorical uniform
triprism atic forms based onCartesian product s of lower dimensional uniform polytopes, for example these regular products:Six are based on products of the uniform 4-polytopes and uniform duoprisms:
Regular and uniform honeycombs
There are five fundamental affine
Coxeter groups that generate regular and uniform tessellations in 7-space:Regular and uniform tessellations include:
* B~7 or [4,35,4] :
**regular honeycombhepteractic honeycomb , with symbols {4,35,4},
* C~7 or [31,1,34,4] :
**Uniformdemihepteractic honeycomb , with symbols h{4,35,4} = {31,1,34,4},
* E~7 or [33,3,1] :
**Uniform 331 honeycomb with 321 polytopevertex figure and 231 polytope and7-simplex facets with symbols {33,3,1} and
** Uniform 13,3 honeycomb,See also
