In geometry, a honeycomb is a space filling or close packing 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. Its dimension can be clarified as n-honeycomb for a honeycomb of n-dimensional space.
A regular hexagonal grid This honeycomb forms a circle packing, with circles centered on each hexagon.. The honeycomb conjecture states that a regular hexagonal grid or honeycomb has the least total perimeter of any subdivision of the plane into regions of equal area.
In the geometry of hyperbolic 3-space, the order-3-infinite hexagonal honeycomb or (6,3,∞ honeycomb) is a regular space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb) with Schläfli symbol {6,3,∞}. It has infinitely many hexagonal tiling {6,3} around each edge.
In three-dimensional hyperbolic geometry, the alternated hexagonal tiling honeycomb, h{6,3,3}, or , is a semiregular tessellation with tetrahedron and triangular tiling cells arranged in an octahedron vertex figure. It is named after its construction, as an alteration of a hexagonal tiling honeycomb.
The omnitruncated hexagonal tiling honeycomb or omnitruncated order-6 tetrahedral honeycomb, t 0,1,2,3 {6,3,3}, has truncated octahedron, hexagonal prism, dodecagonal prism, and truncated trihexagonal tiling cells, with an irregular tetrahedron vertex figure.
In three-dimensional hyperbolic geometry, the alternated order-6 hexagonal tiling honeycomb is a uniform compact space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb).As an alternation, with Schläfli symbol h{4,3,6} and Coxeter-Dynkin diagram or , it can be considered a quasiregular honeycomb, alternating triangular tilings and tetrahedra around each vertex in a trihexagonal tiling vertex figure.
Amazon/Herschel. Some people already know it can be used to secure extra items to your backpack. It's called a lash tab, and historically, it was utilized by hikers and mountain climbers.
In the geometry of hyperbolic 3-space, the order-3-8 octagonal honeycomb is a regular space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb) with Schläfli symbol {8,3,8}. It has eight octagonal tilings , {8,3}, around each edge.
