The dual polyhedra of the Archimedean solids, given in the following table. They are known as Catalan solids in honor of the Belgian mathematician who first published them in ...

A number of attractive cube 10-compounds can be constructed. The first can be obtained by beginning with an initial cube and rotating it by an angle theta=sin^(-1)(sqrt(3/8)) ...

A number of attractive cube 6-compounds can be constructed. A first (left figures) is obtained by combining six cubes, each rotated by 1/6 of a turn about the line joining ...

The great cubicuboctahedron is the uniform polyhedron with Maeder index 14 (Maeder 1997), Wenninger index 77 (Wenninger 1989), Coxeter index 50 (Coxeter et al. 1954), and ...

The great rhombihexahedron is the uniform polyhedron with Maeder index 21 (Maeder 1997), Wenninger index 103 (Wenninger 1989), Coxeter index 82 (Coxeter et al. 1954), and ...

The harmonic parameter of a polyhedron is the weighted mean of the distances d_i from a fixed interior point to the faces, where the weights are the areas A_i of the faces, ...

A figurate number which is the sum of two consecutive pyramidal numbers, O_n=P_(n-1)+P_n=1/3n(2n^2+1). (1) The first few are 1, 6, 19, 44, 85, 146, 231, 344, 489, 670, 891, ...

A quasiregular polyhedron is the solid region interior to two dual regular polyhedra with Schläfli symbols {p,q} and {q,p}. Quasiregular polyhedra are denoted using a ...

The quasirhombicuboctahedron is the name given by Wenninger (1989, p. 132) to the uniform polyhedron with Maeder index 17 (Maeder 1997), Wenninger index 85 (Wenninger 1989), ...

The stellated truncated hexahedron (Maeder 1997), also called the quasitruncated hexahedron (Wenninger 1989, p. 144), is the uniform polyhedron with Maeder index 19 (Maeder ...
