Bidiakis cube Bidiakis cube In the mathematical field of graph theory, the Bidiakis cube is a 3-regular graph with 12 vertices and 18 edges. The Bidiakis cube is a cubic Hamiltonian graph and can be defined by the LCF notation [-6,4,-4]. The Bidiakis cube can also be constructed from a cube by adding edges across the top and bottom faces which connect the centres of opposite sides of the faces. The two additional edges need to be perpendicular to each other. With this construction, the Bidiakis cube is a polyhedral graph, and can be realized as a convex polyhedron. Therefore, by Steinitz's
5-cube rhombic icosahedron envelope. There are 22 exterior vertices, and 10 interior vertices. The 10 interior vertices have the convex hull of a pentagonal antiprism. The 80 edges project into 40 external edges and 40 internal ones. The 40 cubes project into golden rhombohedra which can be used to dissect the rhombic icosahedron. The projection vectors are u = {1, φ, 0, -1, φ}, v = {φ, 0, 1, φ, 0}, w = {0, 1, φ, 0, -1}, where φ is the golden_ratio, formula_2. This polytope is one of 31 uniform 5-polytopes generated from the regular 5-cube or 5-orthoplex. 5-cube In
