Stericated 6-simplexes


Orthogonal projections in A6 Coxeter plane

In six-dimensional geometry, a stericated 6-simplex is a convex uniform 6-polytope with 4th order truncations (sterication) of the regular 6-simplex.

There are 8 unique sterications for the 6-simplex with permutations of truncations, cantellations, and runcinations.

  • Small cellated heptapeton (Acronym: scal) (Jonathan Bowers)

Coordinates

The vertices of the stericated 6-simplex can be most simply positioned in 7-space as permutations of (0,0,1,1,1,1,2). This construction is based on facets of the stericated 7-orthoplex.
