24-cell - Three Coxeter Group Constructions

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.

Three nets of the 24-cell with cells colored by D4, B4, and F4 symmetry
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

(Each edge corresponds to one triangular face, colored by symmetry arrangement)

Famous quotes containing the word group:

    We often overestimate the influence of a peer group on our teenager. While the peer group is most influential in matters of taste and preference, we parents are most influential in more abiding matters of standards, beliefs, and values.
    David Elkind (20th century)
