8 lattice is the union of three A 8 lattices, and also identical to the E8 lattice. [3] ∪ ∪ = . The A * 8 lattice (also called A 9 8) is the union of nine A 8 lattices, and has the vertex arrangement of the dual honeycomb to the omnitruncated 8-simplex honeycomb, and therefore the Voronoi cell of this lattice is an omnitruncated 8-simplex
In eight-dimensional Euclidean geometry, the cyclotruncated 8-simplex honeycomb is a space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb). The tessellation fills space by 8-simplex, truncated 8-simplex, bitruncated 8-simplex, tritruncated 8-simplex, and quadritruncated 8-simplex facets. These facet types occur in proportions of 2:2:2:2:1 respectively in ...
In geometry, the 8-cubic honeycomb or octeractic honeycomb is the only regular space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb) in Euclidean 8-space. It is analogous to the square tiling of the plane and to the cubic honeycomb of 3-space, and the tesseractic honeycomb of 4-space. There are many different Wythoff constructions of this honeycomb.
In eight-dimensional Euclidean geometry, the omnitruncated 8-simplex honeycomb is a space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb). It is composed entirely of omnitruncated 8-simplex facets. The facets of all omnitruncated simplectic honeycombs are called permutahedra and can be positioned in n+1 space with integral coordinates, permutations of the ...
A 3-dimensional uniform honeycomb is a honeycomb in 3-space composed of uniform polyhedral cells, and having all vertices the same (i.e., the group of [isometries of 3-space that preserve the tiling] is transitive on vertices). There are 28 convex examples in Euclidean 3-space, [1] also called the Archimedean honeycombs.
The vertex arrangement of the 8-demicubic honeycomb is the D 8 lattice. [1] The 112 vertices of the rectified 8-orthoplex vertex figure of the 8-demicubic honeycomb reflect the kissing number 112 of this lattice. [2] The best known is 240, from the E 8 lattice and the 5 21 honeycomb.
The vertex arrangement of the 16-cell honeycomb is called the D 4 lattice or F 4 lattice. [2] The vertices of this lattice are the centers of the 3-spheres in the densest known packing of equal spheres in 4-space; [3] its kissing number is 24, which is also the same as the kissing number in R 4, as proved by Oleg Musin in 2003.
The cubic honeycomb or cubic cellulation is the only proper regular space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb) in Euclidean 3-space made up of cubic cells. It has 4 cubes around every edge, and 8 cubes around each vertex. Its vertex figure is a regular octahedron. It is a self-dual tessellation with Schläfli symbol {4,3,4}.
