Three Coxeter Group Constructions
There are two lower symmetry forms of the 24-cell, derived as a rectified 16-cell, with B4 or symmetry drawn bicolored with 8 and 16 octahedral cells. Lastly it can be constructed from D4 or symmetry, and drawn tricolored with 8 octahedra each.
Rectified demitesseract | Rectified 16-cell | Regular 24-cell |
---|---|---|
D4: Three sets of 8 rectified tetrahedral cells | B4:One set of 16 rectified tetrahedral cells and one set of 8 octahedral cells. | F4: One set of 24 octahedral cells |
Vertex figure (Each edge corresponds to one triangular face, colored by symmetry arrangement) |

Famous quotes containing the word group:
“The government of the United States at present is a foster-child of the special interests. It is not allowed to have a voice of its own. It is told at every move, Dont do that, You will interfere with our prosperity. And when we ask: where is our prosperity lodged? a certain group of gentlemen say, With us.”
—Woodrow Wilson (18561924)
