D5 polytope


[[File:5-demicube t0 D5.svg160px]][5-demicube](5-demicube)[[File:5-cube t4 B4.svg160px]][5-orthoplex](5-orthoplex)

In 5-dimensional geometry, there are 23 uniform polytopes with D5 symmetry, 8 are unique, and 15 are shared with the B5 symmetry. There are two special forms, the 5-orthoplex, and 5-demicube with 10 and 16 vertices respectively.

They can be visualized as symmetric orthographic projections in Coxeter planes of the D5 Coxeter group, and other subgroups. TOC

Graphs

Symmetric orthographic projections of these 8 polytopes can be made in the D5, D4, D3, A3, Coxeter planes. Ak has [k+1] symmetry, Dk has [2(k-1)] symmetry. The B5 plane is included, with only half the [10] symmetry displayed.

These 8 polytopes are each shown in these 5 symmetry planes, with vertices and edges drawn, and vertices colored by the number of overlapping vertices in each projective position.
