In seven-dimensional geometry, a hexicated 7-orthoplex (also hexicated 7-cube) is a convex uniform 7-polytope, including 6th-order truncations (hexication) from the regular 7-orthoplex.

Geometry branch of mathematics that measures the shape, size and position of objects

Geometry is a branch of mathematics concerned with questions of shape, size, relative position of figures, and the properties of space. A mathematician who works in the field of geometry is called a geometer.

Uniform 7-polytope vertex-transitive 7-polytope bounded by uniform facets

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.

7-orthoplex convex regular 7-polytope

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.

Contents

There are 32 hexications for the 7-orthoplex, including all permutations of truncations, cantellations, runcinations, sterications, and pentellations. 12 are represented here, while 20 are more easily constructed from the 7-cube.

7-cube convex regular 7-polytope

In geometry, a 7-cube is a seven-dimensional hypercube with 128 vertices, 448 edges, 672 square faces, 560 cubic cells, 280 tesseract 4-faces, 84 penteract 5-faces, and 14 hexeract 6-faces.

    In seven-dimensional geometry, a hexicated 7-cube is a convex uniform 7-polytope, including 6th-order truncations (hexication) from the regular 7-cube.

    Harold Scott MacDonald Coxeter Canadian mathematician

    Harold Scott MacDonald "Donald" Coxeter, FRS, FRSC, was a British-born Canadian geometer. Coxeter is regarded as one of the greatest geometers of the 20th century. He was born in London, received his BA (1929) and PhD (1931) from Cambridge, but lived in Canada from age 29. He was always called Donald, from his third name MacDonald. He was most noted for his work on regular polytopes and higher-dimensional geometries. He was a champion of the classical approach to geometry, in a period when the tendency was to approach geometry more and more via algebra.
