Cubic-square tiling honeycomb

rdf:langString Cubic-square tiling honeycomb

rdf:langString In the geometry of hyperbolic 3-space, the cubic-square tiling honeycomb is a paracompact uniform honeycomb, constructed from cube and square tiling cells, in a rhombicuboctahedron vertex figure. It has a single-ring Coxeter diagram, , and is named by its two regular cells. A geometric honeycomb is a space-filling of polyhedral or higher-dimensional cells, so that there are no gaps. It is an example of the more general mathematical tiling or tessellation in any number of dimensions. Honeycombs are usually constructed in ordinary Euclidean ("flat") space, like the convex uniform honeycombs. They may also be constructed in non-Euclidean spaces, such as hyperbolic uniform honeycombs. Any finite uniform polytope can be projected to its circumsphere to form a uniform honeycomb in spherical space. It represents a semiregular honeycomb as defined by all regular cells, although from the Wythoff construction, rectified square tiling r{4,4}, becomes the regular square tiling {4,4}.
