KleetopeIn geometry and polyhedral combinatorics, the Kleetope of a polyhedron or higher-dimensional convex polytope P is another polyhedron or polytope PK formed by replacing each facet of P with a shallow pyramid. Kleetopes are named after Victor Klee. The triakis tetrahedron is the Kleetope of a tetrahedron, the triakis octahedron is the Kleetope of an octahedron, and the triakis icosahedron is the Kleetope of an icosahedron. In each of these cases the Kleetope is formed by adding a triangular pyramid to each face of the original polyhedron.
Toroidal polyhedronIn geometry, a toroidal polyhedron is a polyhedron which is also a toroid (a g-holed torus), having a topological genus (g) of 1 or greater. Notable examples include the Császár and Szilassi polyhedra. Toroidal polyhedra are defined as collections of polygons that meet at their edges and vertices, forming a manifold as they do. That is, each edge should be shared by exactly two polygons, and at each vertex the edges and faces that meet at the vertex should be linked together in a single cycle of alternating edges and faces, the link of the vertex.
Polyèdre étoiléEn géométrie, le terme polyèdre étoilé ne semble pas avoir été défini proprement, même si l'objet est pensé dans le sens commun. On peut dire qu'un polyèdre étoilé est un polyèdre qui possède une certaine qualité répétitive de non-convexité lui donnant l'aspect d'une étoile. Il existe deux espèces générales de polyèdres étoilés : Les polyèdres qui s'auto-intersectent d'une manière répétitive. Les polyèdres concaves d'une sorte particulière qui alternent les parties concaves et convexes ou les sommets de selle d'une manière répétitive.
First stellation of the rhombic dodecahedronIn geometry, the first stellation of the rhombic dodecahedron is a self-intersecting polyhedron with 12 faces, each of which is a non-convex hexagon. It is a stellation of the rhombic dodecahedron and has the same outer shell and the same visual appearance as two other shapes: a solid, Escher's solid, with 48 triangular faces, and a polyhedral compound of three flattened octahedra with 24 overlapping triangular faces. Escher's solid can tessellate space to form the stellated rhombic dodecahedral honeycomb.
Trigonal trapezohedral honeycombIn geometry, the trigonal trapezohedral honeycomb is a uniform space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb) in Euclidean 3-space. Cells are identical trigonal trapezohedra or rhombohedra. Conway, Burgiel, and Goodman-Strauss call it an oblate cubille. This honeycomb can be seen as a rhombic dodecahedral honeycomb, with the rhombic dodecahedra dissected with its center into 4 trigonal trapezohedra or rhombohedra. It is analogous to the regular hexagonal being dissectable into 3 rhombi and tiling the plane as a rhombille.
Polyèdre oblique infiniEn géométrie, les polyèdres obliques infinis sont une définition étendue des polyèdres, créés par des faces polygonales régulières, et des figures de sommet non planaires. Beaucoup sont directement reliés aux , étant la surface polygonale d'un nid d'abeille avec certaines cellules enlevées. En tant que solides, ils sont appelés nids d'abeille partiels et aussi éponges. Ces polyèdres sont aussi appelés pavages hyperboliques parce qu'ils peuvent être regardés comme reliés aux pavages de l' qui ont aussi un négatif.
