Cube have octahedral symmetry. The cube is a part of a sequence of rhombic polyhedra and tilings with ["n",3] Coxeter group symmetry. The cube can be seen as a rhombic hexahedron where the rhombi are squares. The cube is a square prism: As a trigonal trapezohedron, the cube is related to the hexagonal dihedral symmetry family. It is an element of 9 of 28 convex uniform honeycombs: It is also an element of five four-dimensional uniform polychora: The skeleton of the cube (the vertices and edges) form a graph, with 8 vertices, and 12 edges. It is a special case of
Principal root of unity Principal root of unity In mathematics, a principal "n"-th root of unity (where "n" is a positive integer) of a ring is an element formula_1 satisfying the equations In an integral domain, every primitive "n"-th root of unity is also a principal formula_3-th root of unity. In any ring, if formula_3 is a power of formula_5, then any formula_6-th root of formula_7 is a principal formula_3-th root of unity. A non-example is formula_9 in the ring of integers modulo formula_10; while formula_11 and thus formula_9 is a cube root of unity, formula_13 meaning that it is not a "principal" cube
