释义 |
In geometry, the order-4 square hosohedral honeycomb is a regular space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb) with Schläfli symbol {2,4,4}. It has 4 square hosohedra {2,4} around each edge. It is a degenerate honeycomb in Euclidean space, but can be seen as a projection onto the sphere. Its vertex figure, a square tiling is seen on each hemisphere. ImagesStereographic projections of spherical projection, with all edges being projected into circles.

The {2,4,4} honeycomb can be truncated as t{2,4,4} or {}×{4,4}, Coxeter diagram {{CDD|node_1|2|node_1|4|node|4|node}}, seen as a layer of cubes, partially shown here with alternately colored cubic cells. Thorold Gosset identified this semiregular infinite honeycomb as a cubic semicheck. The alternation of this honeycomb, {{CDD|node_h|2x|node_h|4|node|4|node}}, consists of infinite square pyramids and infinite tetrahedrons, between 2 square tilings. See also
