Cubic-octahedral honeycomb Cubic-octahedral honeycomb In the geometry of hyperbolic 3-space, the cube-octahedron honeycomb is a compact uniform honeycomb, constructed from cube, octahedron, and cuboctahedron cells, in a rhombicuboctahedron vertex figure. It has a single-ring Coxeter diagram, , and is named by its two regular cells. Wide-angle perspective views: It contains a subgroup H2 tiling, the alternated order-4 hexagonal tiling, , with vertex figure (3.4). A lower symmetry form, index 6, of this honeycomb can be constructed with [(4,3,4,3)] symmetry, represented by a trigonal trapezohedron fundamental domain, and Coxeter diagram . This lower symmetry can be extended by restoring one mirror as .
Tetrahedral-octahedral honeycomb an octahedron at one end and a tetrahedron at the other. It is one of 28 convex uniform honeycombs. It has a "gyrated" form called the gyroelongated alternated cubic honeycomb with the same arrangement of cells at each vertex. Tetrahedral-octahedral honeycomb The tetrahedral-octahedral honeycomb, alternated cubic honeycomb is a quasiregular space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb) in Euclidean 3-space. It is composed of alternating octahedra and tetrahedra in a ratio of 1:2. Other names include half cubic honeycomb, half cubic cellulation, or tetragonal disphenoidal cellulation. John Horton Conway calls this honeycomb a tetroctahedrille, and its dual a dodecahedrille. It is vertex-transitive with
