Octahedral-hexagonal tiling honeycomb has a Coxeter diagram . A radial subgroup symmetry, index 6, of this honeycomb can be constructed with [(4,3,6,3)], represented by a trigonal trapezohedron fundamental domain, and Coxeter diagram . Octahedral-hexagonal tiling honeycomb In the geometry of hyperbolic 3-space, the octahedron-hexagonal tiling honeycomb is a paracompact uniform honeycomb, constructed from octahedron, hexagonal tiling, and trihexagonal tiling cells, in a rhombicuboctahedron vertex figure. It has a single-ring Coxeter diagram, , and is named by its two regular cells. A lower symmetry form, index 6, of this honeycomb can be constructed with [(6,3,4,3)] symmetry, represented by a trigonal trapezohedron fundamental domain, and
Wax argument Wax argument The wax argument or the ball of wax example is a thought experiment that René Descartes created within his "Meditations on First Philosophy". He devised it to analyze what properties are essential for bodies, show how uncertain our knowledge of the world is compared to our knowledge of our minds, and argue for rationalism. Descartes first considers all the sensible properties of a ball of wax such as its shape, texture, size, color, and smell. He then points out that all these properties change as the wax is moved closer to a fire. The only properties that necessarily
