In geometry, a uniform polyteron (or uniform 5-polytope) is a five-dimensional uniform polytope. By definition, a uniform polyteron is vertex-transitive and constructed from uniform polychoron facets.
The complete set of convex uniform polytera has not been determined, but most can be made as Wythoff constructions from a small set of symmetry groups. These construction operations are represented by the permutations of rings of the Coxeter-Dynkin diagrams.

Famous quotes containing the word uniform:
“I’ve always been impressed by the different paths babies take in their physical development on the way to walking. It’s rare to see a behavior that starts out with such wide natural variation, yet becomes so uniform after only a few months.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
