24-cell honeycombIn four-dimensional Euclidean geometry, the 24-cell honeycomb, or icositetrachoric honeycomb is a regular space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb) of 4-dimensional Euclidean space by regular 24-cells. It can be represented by Schläfli symbol {3,4,3,3}. The dual tessellation by regular 16-cell honeycomb has Schläfli symbol {3,3,4,3}. Together with the tesseractic honeycomb (or 4-cubic honeycomb) these are the only regular tessellations of Euclidean 4-space. The 24-cell honeycomb can be constructed as the Voronoi tessellation of the D4 or F4 root lattice.
PentachoreEn géométrie euclidienne de dimension quatre, le pentachore, ou 5-cellules, aussi appelé un pentatope ou 4-simplexe, est le polychore régulier convexe le plus simple. C'est la généralisation d'un triangle du plan ou d'un tétraèdre de l'espace. Le pentachore est constitué de 5 cellules, toutes des tétraèdres. C'est un polytope auto-dual. Sa figure de sommet est un tétraèdre. Son intersection maximale avec l'espace tridimensionnel est le prisme triangulaire. Le symbole de Schläfli du pentachore est {3,3,3}.
Tesseractic honeycombIn four-dimensional euclidean geometry, the tesseractic honeycomb is one of the three regular space-filling tessellations (or honeycombs), represented by Schläfli symbol {4,3,3,4}, and constructed by a 4-dimensional packing of tesseract facets. Its vertex figure is a 16-cell. Two tesseracts meet at each cubic cell, four meet at each square face, eight meet on each edge, and sixteen meet at each vertex. It is an analog of the square tiling, {4,4}, of the plane and the cubic honeycomb, {4,3,4}, of 3-space.
Uniform polytopeIn 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.
5-polytopeIn geometry, a five-dimensional polytope (or 5-polytope) is a polytope in five-dimensional space, bounded by (4-polytope) facets, pairs of which share a polyhedral cell. A 5-polytope is a closed five-dimensional figure with vertices, edges, faces, and cells, and 4-faces. A vertex is a point where five or more edges meet. An edge is a line segment where four or more faces meet, and a face is a polygon where three or more cells meet. A cell is a polyhedron, and a 4-face is a 4-polytope.
6-polytopeIn six-dimensional geometry, a six-dimensional polytope or 6-polytope is a polytope, bounded by 5-polytope facets. A 6-polytope is a closed six-dimensional figure with vertices, edges, faces, cells (3-faces), 4-faces, and 5-faces. A vertex is a point where six or more edges meet. An edge is a line segment where four or more faces meet, and a face is a polygon where three or more cells meet. A cell is a polyhedron. A 4-face is a polychoron, and a 5-face is a 5-polytope.
5-cubethumb|Graphe d'un 5-cube. En cinq dimensions géométriques, un 5-cube est un nom pour un hypercube de cinq dimensions avec 32 sommets, 80 arêtes, 80 faces carrées, 40 cellules cubiques et 10 4-faces tesseracts. Il est représenté par le symbole de Schläfli {4,3,3,3}, réalisé sous la forme 3 tesseracts {4,3,3} autour de chaque arête cubique {4,3}. Il peut être appelé un penteract, ou encore un , étant un construit à partir de 10 facettes régulières. Il fait partie d'une famille infinie d'hypercubes.
Semiregular polytopeIn geometry, by Thorold Gosset's definition a semiregular polytope is usually taken to be a polytope that is vertex-transitive and has all its facets being regular polytopes. E.L. Elte compiled a longer list in 1912 as The Semiregular Polytopes of the Hyperspaces which included a wider definition. In three-dimensional space and below, the terms semiregular polytope and uniform polytope have identical meanings, because all uniform polygons must be regular.
