Notes

[edit]
  1. on nonconvex polyhedra: [a.b...] are degenerate vertex figures - overlapping vertices and edges. Similar uniform polyhedra are displayed, but somewhat different structure.
    • [3.5.5] is a compound {3,5} and {5,5/2}
    • [3.4.5/2.4] is a compound of (5/2.3)3 and 5 {4,3}.
    • [4.5.6] is a compound of ...
    • [4.5.10] is a compound of ...
  2. Dihedrals - added as a test, although since they are not "regular", operations applied are polygon-based.
  3. Tilings - 442, 643, 333 - added, but greater need for consistent colorings/orientatios

Degenerate cases of Wythoff's construction

[edit]

See: [1]

This table shows a list of 45 degenerate cases of Wythoff's construction, enumerated by Coxeter in the 1954 paper, Uniform polyhedra. They exist as polyhedral compounds. They are indexed in the order listed in this paper (table 6), with case 6 subindexed in 3 forms: a,b,c.
