- 6-polytope
Uniform duoprismatic forms
There are 11 categorical uniform
duoprism atic families of polytopes based onCartesian product s of lower dimensional uniform polytopes. Five are formed as the product of auniform polychoron with aregular polygon , and six are formed by the product of two uniform polyhedra:Regular and uniform honeycombs include:
* B~5
** Regularhypercube honeycomb of Euclidean 5-space, thepenteractic honeycomb , with symbols {4,33,4},
* C~5
** The uniformalternated hypercube honeycomb ,demipenteractic honeycomb , with symbols h{4,33,4},See also
