Uniform 6-polytope
DemihexeractIn geometry, a 6-demicube, demihexeract or hemihexeract is a uniform 6-polytope, constructed from a 6-cube (hexeract) with alternated vertices removed. It is part of a dimensionally infinite family of uniform polytopes called demihypercubes. Acronym: hax.[1]
E. L. Elte identified it in 1912 as a semiregular polytope, labeling it as HM6 for a 6-dimensional half measure polytope.
Coxeter named this polytope as 131 from its Coxeter diagram, with a ring on one of the 1-length branches, . It can named similarly by a 3-dimensional exponential Schläfli symbol { 3 3 , 3 , 3 3 } {\displaystyle \left\{3{\begin{array}{l}3,3,3\\3\end{array}}\right\}} or {3,33,1}.
Cartesian coordinates[edit]Cartesian coordinates for the vertices of a demihexeract centered at the origin are alternate halves of the hexeract:
with an odd number of plus signs.
As a configuration[edit]This configuration matrix represents the 6-demicube. The rows and columns correspond to vertices, edges, faces, cells, 4-faces and 5-faces. The diagonal numbers say how many of each element occur in the whole 6-demicube. The nondiagonal numbers say how many of the column's element occur in or at the row's element.[2][3]
The diagonal f-vector numbers are derived through the Wythoff construction, dividing the full group order of a subgroup order by removing one mirror at a time.[1]

The fifth figure is a Euclidean honeycomb, 331, and the final is a noncompact hyperbolic honeycomb, 431. Each progressive uniform polytope is constructed from the previous as its vertex figure.
