Regular and uniform honeycombs
There are five fundamental affine Coxeter groups that generate regular and uniform tessellations in 4-space.[1]
# | Coxeter group | Coxeter-Dynkin diagram | ||
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | A~4 | [(3,3,3,3,3)] | [3[5]] | |
2 | B~4 | [4,3,3,4] | ||
3 | C~4 | [4,3,31,1] | h[4,3,3,4] | |

5 | F~4 | [3,4,3,3] | h[4,3,3,4] |
There are three regular honeycomb of Euclidean 4-space:
- tesseractic honeycomb, with symbols {4,3,3,4}, = . There are 19 uniform honeycombs in this family.
- 24-cell honeycomb, with symbols {3,4,3,3}, . There are 31 uniform honeycombs in this family.
- 16-cell honeycomb, with symbols {3,3,4,3},
Other families that generate uniform honeycombs:
- There are 23 uniform honeycombs, 4 unique in the 16-cell honeycomb family. With symbols h{4,32,4} it is geometrically identical to the 16-cell honeycomb, =
- There are 7 uniform honeycombs from the A~4, family, all unique.
- There are 9 uniform honeycombs in the D~4: [31,1,1,1] family, all repeated in other families, including the 16-cell honeycomb.
Non-Wythoffian uniform tessellations in 4-space also exist by elongation (inserting layers), and gyration (rotating layers) from these reflective forms.
The single-ringed tessellations are given below, indexed by Olshevsky's listing.
Duoprismatic forms
- B~2xB~2: [4,4]x[4,4] = [4,3,3,4] = (Same as tesseractic honeycomb family)
- B~2xH~2: [4,4]x[6,3]
- H~2xH~2: [6,3]x[6,3]
- A~2xB~2: [Δ]x[4,4] (Same forms as [6,3]x[4,4])
- A~2xH~2: [Δ]x[6,3] (Same forms as [6,3]x[6,3])
- A~2xA~2: [Δ]x[Δ] (Same forms as [6,3]x[6,3])
Prismatic forms
Noncompact prismatic forms
- A3xI~1: [3,3]x[∞] -
- B3xI~1: [4,3]x[∞] -
- H3xI~1: [5,3]x[∞] -
- I~1xI~1xI2r: [∞] x [∞] x [r] = [4,4]x[r] - =
Non-Wythoffian forms
The non-Wythoffian forms are built as stacked composites of these prismatic noncompact groups:
- I2pxI~1xA1: [p]x[∞]x[ ] - (Prism column)
- D~3xA1: [4,31,1]x[ ] (Prism slab)
- A~3xA1: (Prism slab)
- A~2xI2p: [Δ]x[p] (Prism slab)
- B~2xI2p: [4,4]x[p] (Prism slab)
- H~2xI2p: [6,3]x[p] (Prism slab)

F~4 [3,4,3,3] family
There are 32 honeycombs in this family, 31 reflective forms and one snub.[3] They are named as truncated forms from the regular 16-cell honeycomb and 24-cell honeycomb. These 31 forms are listed by the regular generators in two groups of 19, with 7 shared between.
From the regular 24-cell honeycomb, 19 forms are:
From the regular 16-cell honeycomb, 19 forms are:
