Semiregular polytope
In 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.
Duoprisme
En géométrie, un duoprisme est un polytope obtenu par le produit cartésien de deux polytopes à deux dimensions ou plus (ce qui exclut les hyperprismes qui sont obtenus par produit cartésien d'un polytope et d'un segment). Le produit cartésien d'un n-polytope et d'un m-polytope est un n+m polytope (avec m et n supérieurs ou égaux à deux). Les duoprismes de dimension la plus petite sont donc de dimension 4 (2 + 2 = 4 polygone x polygone = polychore). Regular Polytopes, H. S. M. Coxeter, Dover Publications, Inc.
Runcinated 5-cell
In four-dimensional geometry, a runcinated 5-cell is a convex uniform 4-polytope, being a runcination (a 3rd order truncation, up to face-planing) of the regular 5-cell. There are 3 unique degrees of runcinations of the 5-cell, including with permutations, truncations, and cantellations. The runcinated 5-cell or small prismatodecachoron is constructed by expanding the cells of a 5-cell radially and filling in the gaps with triangular prisms (which are the face prisms and edge figures) and tetrahedra (cells of the dual 5-cell).
Rectified 5-cell
In four-dimensional geometry, the rectified 5-cell is a uniform 4-polytope composed of 5 regular tetrahedral and 5 regular octahedral cells. Each edge has one tetrahedron and two octahedra. Each vertex has two tetrahedra and three octahedra. In total it has 30 triangle faces, 30 edges, and 10 vertices. Each vertex is surrounded by 3 octahedra and 2 tetrahedra; the vertex figure is a triangular prism. Topologically, under its highest symmetry, [3,3,3], there is only one geometrical form, containing 5 regular tetrahedra and 5 rectified tetrahedra (which is geometrically the same as a regular octahedron).
Prisme triangulaire
En géométrie, un prisme triangulaire ou prisme à trois côtés est un polyèdre fait à partir d'une base triangulaire, une copie translatée et 3 faces joignant les côtés correspondants. Si les côtés sont des carrés, il est qualifié de polyèdre uniforme. D'une manière équivalente, c'est un pentaèdre dont deux faces sont parallèles, tandis que les normales aux surfaces des trois autres sont dans le même plan (qui n'est pas nécessairement parallèle aux plans des bases). Ces trois faces sont des parallélogrammes.
Snub 24-cell
In geometry, the snub 24-cell or snub disicositetrachoron is a convex uniform 4-polytope composed of 120 regular tetrahedral and 24 icosahedral cells. Five tetrahedra and three icosahedra meet at each vertex. In total it has 480 triangular faces, 432 edges, and 96 vertices. One can build it from the 600-cell by diminishing a select subset of icosahedral pyramids and leaving only their icosahedral bases, thereby removing 480 tetrahedra and replacing them with 24 icosahedra.
Cantellated tesseract
In four-dimensional geometry, a cantellated tesseract is a convex uniform 4-polytope, being a cantellation (a 2nd order truncation) of the regular tesseract. There are four degrees of cantellations of the tesseract including with permutations truncations. Two are also derived from the 24-cell family. The cantellated tesseract, bicantellated 16-cell, or small rhombated tesseract is a convex uniform 4-polytope or 4-dimensional polytope bounded by 56 cells: 8 small rhombicuboctahedra, 16 octahedra, and 32 triangular prisms.
Truncated 24-cells
In geometry, a truncated 24-cell is a uniform 4-polytope (4-dimensional uniform polytope) formed as the truncation of the regular 24-cell. There are two degrees of truncations, including a bitruncation. The truncated 24-cell or truncated icositetrachoron is a uniform 4-dimensional polytope (or uniform 4-polytope), which is bounded by 48 cells: 24 cubes, and 24 truncated octahedra. Each vertex joins three truncated octahedra and one cube, in an equilateral triangular pyramid vertex figure.
Truncated tesseract
In geometry, a truncated tesseract is a uniform 4-polytope formed as the truncation of the regular tesseract. There are three truncations, including a bitruncation, and a tritruncation, which creates the truncated 16-cell. The truncated tesseract is bounded by 24 cells: 8 truncated cubes, and 16 tetrahedra. Truncated tesseract (Norman W. Johnson) Truncated tesseract (Acronym tat) (George Olshevsky, and Jonathan Bowers) The truncated tesseract may be constructed by truncating the vertices of the tesseract at of the edge length.
Rectified tesseract
In geometry, the rectified tesseract, rectified 8-cell is a uniform 4-polytope (4-dimensional polytope) bounded by 24 cells: 8 cuboctahedra, and 16 tetrahedra. It has half the vertices of a runcinated tesseract, with its construction, called a runcic tesseract. It has two uniform constructions, as a rectified 8-cell r{4,3,3} and a cantellated demitesseract, rr{3,31,1}, the second alternating with two types of tetrahedral cells. E. L. Elte identified it in 1912 as a semiregular polytope, labeling it as tC8.
