Honeycombs (geometry)

Order-4 dodecahedral honeycomb

In hyperbolic geometry, the order-4 dodecahedral honeycomb is one of four compact regular space-filling tessellations (or honeycombs) of hyperbolic 3-space. With Schläfli symbol {5,3,4}, it has four dodecahedra around each edge, and 8 dodecahedra around each vertex in an octahedral arrangement. Its vertices are constructed from 3 orthogonal axes. Its dual is the order-5 cubic honeycomb. A geometric honeycomb is a space-filling 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. Honeycombs are usually constructed in ordinary Euclidean ("flat") space, like the convex uniform honeycombs. They may also be constructed in non-Euclidean spaces, such as hyperbolic uniform honeycombs. Any finite uniform polytope can be projected to its circumsphere to form a uniform honeycomb in spherical space. (Wikipedia).

Canonical structures inside the Platonic solids III | Universal Hyperbolic Geometry 51

The dodecahedron is surely one of the truly great mathematical objects---revered by the ancient Greeks, Kepler, and many mathematicians since. Its symmetries are particularly rich, and in this video we look at how to see the five-fold and six-fold symmetries of this object via internal str

How to Construct a Dodecahedron

How the greeks constructed the Dodecahedron. Euclids Elements Book 13, Proposition 17. In geometry, a dodecahedron is any polyhedron with twelve flat faces. The most familiar dodecahedron is the regular dodecahedron with regular pentagons as faces, which is a Platonic solid. A regular dode

How do ceramic crystal structures differ from metal crystal structures?

Metal crystal structures are much simpler than ceramic structures. This is due to two reasons. First, ceramics have positive and negative charged ions. Cations and ions must maintain charge neutrality. Second, the size of cations and anions are very different! Structures with multiple diff

We look at the symmetries of the Platonic solids, starting here with rigid motions, which are essentially rotations about fixed axes. We use the normalization of angle whereby one full turn has the value one, and also connect the number of rigid motions with the number of directed edges.
