Uniform honeycombs in hyperbolic space (original) (raw)

In hyperbolic geometry, a uniform honeycomb in hyperbolic space is a uniform tessellation of uniform polyhedral cells. In 3-dimensional hyperbolic space there are nine Coxeter group families of compact convex uniform honeycombs, generated as Wythoff constructions, and represented by permutations of rings of the Coxeter diagrams for each family. Unsolved problem in mathematics: Find the complete set of hyperbolic uniform honeycombs. (more unsolved problems in mathematics)
