7-orthoplex
In geometry, a 7-orthoplex, or 7-cross polytope, is a regular 7-polytope with 14 vertices, 84 edges, 280 triangle faces, 560 tetrahedron cells, 672 5-cells 4-faces, 448 5-faces, and 128 6-faces. It has two constructed forms, the first being regular with Schläfli symbol {35,4}, and the second with alternately labeled (checkerboarded) facets, with Schläfli symbol {3,3,3,3,31,1} or Coxeter symbol 411. It is a part of an infinite family of polytopes, called cross-polytopes or orthoplexes.
Uniform 7-polytope
In seven-dimensional geometry, a 7-polytope is a polytope contained by 6-polytope facets. Each 5-polytope ridge being shared by exactly two 6-polytope facets. A uniform 7-polytope is one whose symmetry group is transitive on vertices and whose facets are uniform 6-polytopes. Regular 7-polytopes are represented by the Schläfli symbol {p,q,r,s,t,u} with u {p,q,r,s,t} 6-polytopes facets around each 4-face. There are exactly three such convex regular 7-polytopes: {3,3,3,3,3,3} - 7-simplex {4,3,3,3,3,3} - 7-cube {3,3,3,3,3,4} - 7-orthoplex There are no nonconvex regular 7-polytopes.
Demi-hypercube
vignette|Les deux demi-hypercubes du cube de dimension 3 sont des tétraèdres. En géométrie, un demi-hypercube est un polytope de dimension n formé en les sommets d'un hypercube de dimension n, c'est-à-dire en ne conservant qu'un sommet sur deux. Il est également appelé polytope de demi-mesure. À partir d'un hypercube donné, on peut obtenir deux demi-hypercubes distincts, en fonction des sommets que l'on élimine et de ceux que l'on garde (il y a deux choix possibles).
Hypercube
Un hypercube est, en géométrie, un analogue n-dimensionnel d'un carré (n = 2) et d'un cube (n = 3). C'est une figure fermée, compacte, convexe constituée de groupes de segments parallèles opposés alignés dans chacune des dimensions de l'espace, à angle droit les uns par rapport aux autres. Un hypercube n-dimensionnel est aussi appelé un n-cube. Le terme « polytope de mesure » a aussi été utilisé (notamment par Coxeter), mais il est tombé en désuétude. Enfin, le cas particulier du 4-cube est souvent désigné par le terme de tesseract.
Uniform polytope
In geometry, a uniform polytope of dimension three or higher is a vertex-transitive polytope bounded by uniform facets. The uniform polytopes in two dimensions are the regular polygons (the definition is different in 2 dimensions to exclude vertex-transitive even-sided polygons that alternate two different lengths of edges). This is a generalization of the older category of semiregular polytopes, but also includes the regular polytopes. Further, star regular faces and vertex figures (star polygons) are allowed, which greatly expand the possible solutions.
