Rectified 24-cellIn geometry, the rectified 24-cell or rectified icositetrachoron is a uniform 4-dimensional polytope (or uniform 4-polytope), which is bounded by 48 cells: 24 cubes, and 24 cuboctahedra. It can be obtained by rectification of the 24-cell, reducing its octahedral cells to cubes and cuboctahedra. E. L. Elte identified it in 1912 as a semiregular polytope, labeling it as tC24. It can also be considered a cantellated 16-cell with the lower symmetries B4 = [3,3,4]. B4 would lead to a bicoloring of the cuboctahedral cells into 8 and 16 each.
Cantellation (geometry)In geometry, a cantellation is a 2nd-order truncation in any dimension that bevels a regular polytope at its edges and at its vertices, creating a new facet in place of each edge and of each vertex. Cantellation also applies to regular tilings and honeycombs. Cantellating a polyhedron is also rectifying its rectification. Cantellation (for polyhedra and tilings) is also called expansion by Alicia Boole Stott: it corresponds to moving the faces of the regular form away from the center, and filling in a new face in the gap for each opened edge and for each opened vertex.
Cantellated 5-cellIn four-dimensional geometry, a cantellated 5-cell is a convex uniform 4-polytope, being a cantellation (a 2nd order truncation, up to edge-planing) of the regular 5-cell. The cantellated 5-cell or small rhombated pentachoron is a uniform 4-polytope. It has 30 vertices, 90 edges, 80 faces, and 20 cells. The cells are 5 cuboctahedra, 5 octahedra, and 10 triangular prisms. Each vertex is surrounded by 2 cuboctahedra, 2 triangular prisms, and 1 octahedron; the vertex figure is a nonuniform triangular prism.
Cantellated 24-cellsIn four-dimensional geometry, a cantellated 24-cell is a convex uniform 4-polytope, being a cantellation (a 2nd order truncation) of the regular 24-cell. There are 2 unique degrees of cantellations of the 24-cell including permutations with truncations. The cantellated 24-cell or small rhombated icositetrachoron is a uniform 4-polytope. The boundary of the cantellated 24-cell is composed of 24 truncated octahedral cells, 24 cuboctahedral cells and 96 triangular prisms.
Uniform antiprismatic prismIn 4-dimensional geometry, a uniform antiprismatic prism or antiduoprism is a uniform 4-polytope with two uniform antiprism cells in two parallel 3-space hyperplanes, connected by uniform prisms cells between pairs of faces. The symmetry of a p-gonal antiprismatic prism is [2p,2+,2], order 8p. A p-gonal antiprismatic prism or p-gonal antiduoprism has 2 p-gonal antiprism, 2 p-gonal prism, and 2p triangular prism cells. It has 4p equilateral triangle, 4p square and 4 regular p-gon faces. It has 10p edges, and 4p vertices.
Polyèdre uniformeUn polyèdre uniforme est un polyèdre dont les faces sont des polygones réguliers et qui est isogonal, c'est-à-dire que pour tout couple de sommets, il existe une isométrie qui applique un sommet sur l'autre. Il en découle que tous les sommets sont congruents et que le polyèdre possède un haut degré de symétrie par réflexion et rotation. La notion de polyèdre uniforme est généralisée, pour un nombre de dimensions quelconque, par celle de . Les polyèdres uniformes peuvent être réguliers, quasi réguliers ou semi-réguliers.
