Hexicated 7-simplexes

In seven-dimensional geometry, a hexicated 7-simplex is a convex uniform 7-polytope, including 6th-order truncations (hexication) from the regular 7-simplex.

There are 20 unique hexications for the 7-simplex, including all permutations of truncations, cantellations, runcinations, sterications, and pentellations.

The simple hexicated 7-simplex is also called an expanded 7-simplex, with only the first and last nodes ringed, is constructed by an expansion operation applied to the regular 7-simplex. The highest form, the hexipentisteriruncicantitruncated 7-simplex is more simply called an omnitruncated 7-simplex with all of the nodes ringed.

Hexicated 7-simplex

In seven-dimensional geometry, a hexicated 7-simplex is a convex uniform 7-polytope, a hexication (6th order truncation) of the regular 7-simplex, or alternately can be seen as an expansion operation.

Root vectors

Its 56 vertices represent the root vectors of the simple Lie group A<sub>7</sub>.

Omnitruncated 7-simplex

The omnitruncated 7-simplex is composed of 40320 (8 factorial) vertices and is the largest uniform 7-polytope in the A<sub>7</sub> symmetry of the regular 7-simplex. It can also be called the hexipentisteriruncicantitruncated 7-simplex which is the long name for the omnitruncation for 7 dimensions, with all reflective mirrors active.

Permutohedron and related tessellation

The omnitruncated 7-simplex is the permutohedron of order 8. The omnitruncated 7-simplex is a zonotope, the Minkowski sum of eight line segments parallel to the eight lines through the origin and the eight vertices of the 7-simplex.

Like all uniform omnitruncated n-simplices, the omnitruncated 7-simplex can tessellate space by itself, in this case 7-dimensional space with three facets around each ridge. It has Coxeter-Dynkin diagram of .
