- Uniform polyhedron compound
A
uniform polyhedron compound is apolyhedral compound whose constituents are identical (although possibly enantiomorphous) uniform polyhedra, in an arrangement that is also uniform: thesymmetry group of the compound acts transitively on the compound's vertices.The uniform polyhedron compounds were first enumerated by
John Skilling in 1976, with a proof that the enumeration is complete. The following table lists them according to his numbering.References
