Cantellated 6-simplexes

In six-dimensional geometry, a cantellated 6-simplex is a convex uniform 6-polytope, being a cantellation of the regular 6-simplex.

There are unique 4 degrees of cantellation for the 6-simplex, including truncations.

Cantellated 6-simplex

Alternate names

  • Small rhombated heptapeton (Acronym: sril) (Jonathan Bowers)

Coordinates

The vertices of the cantellated 6-simplex can be most simply positioned in 7-space as permutations of (0,0,0,0,1,1,2). This construction is based on facets of the cantellated 7-orthoplex.

Bicantellated 6-simplex

Alternate names

  • Small prismated heptapeton (Acronym: sabril) (Jonathan Bowers)

Coordinates

The vertices of the bicantellated 6-simplex can be most simply positioned in 7-space as permutations of (0,0,0,1,1,2,2). This construction is based on facets of the bicantellated 7-orthoplex.

Cantitruncated 6-simplex

Alternate names

  • Great rhombated heptapeton (Acronym: gril) (Jonathan Bowers)

Coordinates

The vertices of the cantitruncated 6-simplex can be most simply positioned in 7-space as permutations of (0,0,0,0,1,2,3). This construction is based on facets of the cantitruncated 7-orthoplex.

Bicantitruncated 6-simplex

Alternate names

  • Great birhombated heptapeton (Acronym: gabril) (Jonathan Bowers)

Coordinates

The vertices of the bicantitruncated 6-simplex can be most simply positioned in 7-space as permutations of (0,0,0,1,2,3,3). This construction is based on facets of the bicantitruncated 7-orthoplex.
