Nonconvex Examples
Coxeter, H.S.M. et al. (1954) also classify certain star polyhedra having the same characteristics as being quasiregular:
Two are based on dual pairs of regular Kepler–Poinsot solids, in the same way as for the convex examples.
The great icosidodecahedron and the dodecadodecahedron :
Regular | Dual regular | Quasiregular | Vertex figure |
---|---|---|---|
great stellated dodecahedron {5/2,3}
|
great icosahedron {3,5/2}
|
Great icosidodecahedron 2 | 3 5/2 |
3.5/2.3.5/2 |
Small stellated dodecahedron {5/2,5}
|
Great dodecahedron {5,5/2}
|
Dodecadodecahedron 2 | 5 5/2 |
5.5/2.5.5/2 |
Lastly there are three ditrigonal forms, whose vertex figures contain three alternations of the two face types:
Polyhedron | Vertex figure |
---|---|
Ditrigonal dodecadodecahedron 3 | 5/3 5 |
(5.5/3)3 |
Small ditrigonal icosidodecahedron 3 | 5/2 3 |
(3.5/2)3 |
Great ditrigonal icosidodecahedron 3/2 | 3 5 |
((3.5)3)/2 |

Famous quotes containing the word examples:
“There are many examples of women that have excelled in learning, and even in war, but this is no reason we should bring em all up to Latin and Greek or else military discipline, instead of needle-work and housewifry.”
—Bernard Mandeville (16701733)
