Triangular tiling honeycomb Triangular tiling honeycomb The triangular tiling honeycomb is one of 11 paracompact regular space-filling tessellations (or honeycombs) in hyperbolic 3-space. It is called "paracompact" because it has infinite cells and vertex figures, with all vertices as ideal points at infinity. It has Schläfli symbol {3,6,3}, being composed of triangular tiling cells. Each edge of the honeycomb is surrounded by three cells, and each vertex is ideal with infinitely many cells meeting there. Its vertex figure is a hexagonal tiling. It has two lower reflective symmetry constructions, as an alternated order-6 hexagonal tiling honeycomb, ↔ , and as from , which
Triangular prismatic honeycomb prisms can be combined to create gyrobifastigium cells. The resulting honeycomb is closely related but not equivalent: it has the same vertices and edges, but different two-dimensional faces and three-dimensional cells. <HR> The gyroelongated triangular prismatic honeycomb or elongated parasquare fastigial cellulation is a uniform space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb) in Euclidean 3-space. It is composed of cubes and triangular prisms in a ratio of 1:2. It is created by alternating layers of cubes and triangular prisms, with the prisms alternating in orientation by 90 degrees. It is related to the elongated triangular prismatic honeycomb which has the triangular prisms with
