In six-dimensional geometry, a steric 6-cube is a convex uniform 6-polytope. There are unique 4 steric forms of the 6-cube.
Steric 6-cube
Alternate names
- Runcinated demihexeract
- Runcinated 6-demicube
- Small prismated hemihexeract (Acronym: sophax) (Jonathan Bowers)
Cartesian coordinates
The Cartesian coordinates for the 480 vertices of a steric 6-cube centered at the origin are coordinate permutations:
(ñ1,ñ1,ñ1,ñ1,ñ1,ñ3)
with an odd number of plus signs.
