A bitruncated cube is a truncated octahedron. A bitruncated cubic honeycomb - Cubic cells become orange truncated octahedra, and vertices are replaced by blue truncated octahedra. In geometry , a bitruncation is an operation on regular polytopes .
where r, s, and t are positive real numbers that determine the main features of the superquadric. Namely: less than 1: a pointy octahedron modified to have concave faces and sharp edges. exactly 1: a regular octahedron. between 1 and 2: an octahedron modified to have convex faces, blunt edges and blunt corners. exactly 2: a sphere
Example: an octahedron is a birectification of a cube: {3,4} = 2r{4,3}. Another type of truncation, cantellation , cuts edges and vertices, removing the original edges, replacing them with rectangles, removing the original vertices, and replacing them with the faces of the dual of the original regular polyhedra or tiling.
An object with this symmetry is characterized by the part of the object in the fundamental domain, for example the cube is given by z = 1, and the octahedron by x + y + z = 1 (or the corresponding inequalities, to get the solid instead of the surface).
They are not necessarily mirror-symmetric; e.g. GP(5,3) and GP(3,5) are enantiomorphs of each other. A Goldberg polyhedron is a dual polyhedron of a geodesic polyhedron . A consequence of Euler's polyhedron formula is that a Goldberg polyhedron always has exactly 12 pentagonal faces.

For the cube the extended ƒ-vector is (1,8,12,6,1) and for the octahedron it is (1,6,12,8,1). Although the vectors for these example polyhedra are unimodal (the coefficients, taken in left to right order, increase to a maximum and then decrease), there are higher-dimensional polytopes for which this is not true.

In numerical analysis, Lebedev quadrature, named after Vyacheslav Ivanovich Lebedev, is an approximation to the surface integral of a function over a three-dimensional sphere.
