Cube Cube In geometry, a cube is a three-dimensional solid object bounded by six square faces, facets or sides, with three meeting at each vertex. The cube is the only regular hexahedron and is one of the five Platonic solids. It has 6 faces, 12 edges, and 8 vertices. The cube is also a square parallelepiped, an equilateral cuboid and a right rhombohedron. It is a regular square prism in three orientations, and a trigonal trapezohedron in four orientations. The cube is dual to the octahedron. It has cubical or octahedral symmetry. The cube is the only convex polyhedron whose faces
Partial cube partial cube labeling. The isometric dimension of a partial cube is the minimum dimension of a hypercube onto which it may be isometrically embedded, and is equal to the number of equivalence classes of the Djoković–Winkler relation. For instance, the isometric dimension of an formula_9-vertex tree is its number of edges, formula_13. An embedding of a partial cube onto a hypercube of this dimension is unique, up to symmetries of the hypercube. Every hypercube and therefore every partial cube may be embedded isometrically into an integer lattice, and the lattice dimension of the partial cube is the minimum dimension of
