Demihexeract

Demihexeract

A demihexteract or 6-demicube is a uniform 6-polytope, constructed from a "6-hypercube" (hexeract) with alternated vertices deleted. It is part of a dimensionally infinite family of uniform polytopes called demihypercubes.

Coxeter named this polytope as 131 from its Coxeter-Dynkin diagram, with a ring on one of the 1-length Coxeter-Dynkin diagram branches.
