Uniform antiprismatic prism

Uniform antiprismatic prism

In 4-dimensional geometry, a uniform antiprismatic prism is a uniform polychoron with two uniform antiprism cells in two parallel 3-space hyperplanes, connected by uniform prisms cells between pairs of faces.

A "p-gonal antiprismatic prism" has "4p" triangle, "4p" square and "4" p-gon faces. It has "10p" edges, and "4p" vertices.

The convex set includes:
# "Triangular antiprismatic prism" - )
# Square antiprismatic prism - s
# Pentagonal antiprismatic prism - s
# Hexagonal antiprismatic prism - s
# Heptagonal antiprismatic prism - s
# Octagonal antiprismatic prism - s
#...

There are also nonconvex forms following the set of star antiprisms:
# Pentagrammic antiprismatic prism - s
# Pentagrammic crossed antiprismatic prism - s
#...
