The hypercubes are one of the few families of regular polytopes that are represented in any number of dimensions. [8] The hypercube (offset) family is one of three regular polytope families, labeled by Coxeter as γ n. The other two are the hypercube dual family, the cross-polytopes, labeled as β n, and the simplices, labeled as α n.
The two general forms of the hypercube honeycombs are the regular form with identical hypercubic facets and one semiregular, with alternating hypercube facets, like a checkerboard. A third form is generated by an expansion operation applied to the regular form, creating facets in place of all lower-dimensional elements.
In graph theory, the hypercube graph Q n is the graph formed from the vertices and edges of an n-dimensional hypercube. For instance, the cube graph Q 3 is the graph formed by the 8 vertices and 12 edges of a three-dimensional cube. Q n has 2 n vertices, 2 n – 1 n edges, and is a regular graph with n edges touching each vertex.
In geometry, a tesseract or 4-cube is a four-dimensional hypercube, analogous to a two-dimensional square and a three-dimensional cube. [1] Just as the perimeter of the square consists of four edges and the surface of the cube consists of six square faces , the hypersurface of the tesseract consists of eight cubical cells , meeting at right ...
Alternation of the n-cube yields one of two n-demicubes, as in this 3-dimensional illustration of the two tetrahedra that arise as the 3-demicubes of the 3-cube.. In geometry, demihypercubes (also called n-demicubes, n-hemicubes, and half measure polytopes) are a class of n-polytopes constructed from alternation of an n-hypercube, labeled as hγ n for being half of the hypercube family, γ n.
In geometry, a 10-cube is a ten-dimensional hypercube.It has 1024 vertices, 5120 edges, 11520 square faces, 15360 cubic cells, 13440 tesseract 4-faces, 8064 5-cube 5-faces, 3360 6-cube 6-faces, 960 7-cube 7-faces, 180 8-cube 8-faces, and 20 9-cube 9-faces.
In this tiling of the plane by congruent squares, the green and violet squares meet edge-to-edge as do the blue and orange squares. In geometry, Keller's conjecture is the conjecture that in any tiling of n-dimensional Euclidean space by identical hypercubes, there are two hypercubes that share an entire (n − 1)-dimensional face with each other.
In geometry, the quarter hypercubic honeycomb (or quarter n-cubic honeycomb) is a dimensional infinite series of honeycombs, based on the hypercube honeycomb.It is given a Schläfli symbol q{4,3...3,4} or Coxeter symbol qδ 4 representing the regular form with three quarters of the vertices removed and containing the symmetry of Coxeter group ~ for n ≥ 5, with ~ = ~ and for quarter n-cubic ...
