  3. Menger sponge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Menger_sponge

    Divide every face of the cube into nine squares in a similar manner to a Rubik's Cube. This sub-divides the cube into 27 smaller cubes. Remove the smaller cube in the middle of each face, and remove the smaller cube in the center of the larger cube, leaving 20 smaller cubes. This is a level-1 Menger sponge (resembling a void cube).

  5. Cake number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cake_number

    In mathematics, the cake number, denoted by C n, is the maximum of the number of regions into which a 3-dimensional cube can be partitioned by exactly n planes. The cake number is so-called because one may imagine each partition of the cube by a plane as a slice made by a knife through a cube-shaped cake .

    The overlapping cube and ball in a cube puzzles were followed by using the modified mechanism from an Eastsheen 4x4x4 cube, and in 2007 the Hexaminx puzzle, a cubic version of the Megaminx for which Fisher has used new manufacturing techniques involving polyurethane resins to make the tiny extensions as one solid piece.

  7. Hypercube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypercube

    In geometry, a hypercube is an n-dimensional analogue of a square (n = 2) and a cube (n = 3); the special case for n = 4 is known as a tesseract.It is a closed, compact, convex figure whose 1-skeleton consists of groups of opposite parallel line segments aligned in each of the space's dimensions, perpendicular to each other and of the same length.
