A point at which three or more polyhedron edges of a polyhedron meet. The concept can also be generalized to a polytope.

There are 10 stellated regular 4-polytopes (Wells 1991, p. 209).

A general prism is a polyhedron possessing two congruent polygonal faces and with all remaining faces parallelograms (Kern and Bland 1948, p. 28; left figure). A right prism ...

The volume of a prismatoid is equal to the sum of the volumes of a pyramid, a wedge, and a parallelepiped.

A prismatoid having planar sides and the same number of vertices in both of its parallel planes. The faces of a prismoid are therefore either trapezoids or parallelograms. ...

A pyritohedron is an irregular dodecahedron composed of identical irregular pentagons. The name "pyritohedron" derives from that fact that a common crystal form in pyrite has ...

A flexible polyhedron due to C. Schwabe (with the appearance of having four horns) which flexes from one totally flat configuration to another, passing through intermediate ...

The distance from the center of a circle to its perimeter, or from the center of a sphere to its surface. The radius is equal to half the diameter.

A polyhedron with extra square faces, given by the Schläfli symbol r{p; q}.

A beautiful class of polyhedra composed of rhombic faces discovered accidentally by R. Towle while attempting to develop a function to create a rhombic hexahedron from a ...
