PropertiesRegular

In the field of hyperbolic geometry, the order-5 hexagonal tiling honeycomb arises as one of 11 regular paracompact honeycombs in 3-dimensional hyperbolic space. It is paracompact because it has cells composed of an infinite number of faces. Each cell consists of a hexagonal tiling whose vertices lie on a horosphere, a flat plane in hyperbolic space that approaches a single ideal point at infinity.

Contents

The Schläfli symbol of the order-5 hexagonal tiling honeycomb is {6,3,5}. Since that of the hexagonal tiling is {6,3}, this honeycomb has five such hexagonal tilings meeting at each edge. Since the Schläfli symbol of the icosahedron is {3,5}, the vertex figure of this honeycomb is an icosahedron. Thus, 20 hexagonal tilings meet at each vertex of this honeycomb. [1]

A geometric honeycomb is a space-filling of polyhedral or higher-dimensional cells, so that there are no gaps. It is an example of the more general mathematical tiling or tessellation in any number of dimensions.

Honeycombs are usually constructed in ordinary Euclidean ("flat") space, like the convex uniform honeycombs. They may also be constructed in non-Euclidean spaces, such as hyperbolic uniform honeycombs. Any finite uniform polytope can be projected to its circumsphere to form a uniform honeycomb in spherical space.

Symmetry

A lower-symmetry construction of index 120, [6,(3,5)*], exists with regular dodecahedral fundamental domains, and an icosahedral Coxeter-Dynkin diagram with 6 axial infinite-order (ultraparallel) branches.

The order-5 hexagonal tiling honeycomb is similar to the 2D hyperbolic regular paracompact order-5 apeirogonal tiling, {,5}, with five apeirogonal faces meeting around every vertex.
