Pentellated 6-orthoplexes


In six-dimensional geometry, a pentellated 6-orthoplex is a convex uniform 6-polytope with 5th order truncations of the regular 6-orthoplex.
There are unique 16 degrees of pentellations of the 6-orthoplex with permutations of truncations, cantellations, runcinations, and sterications. Ten are shown, with the other 6 more easily constructed as a pentellated 6-cube. The simple pentellated 6-orthoplex is also called an expanded 6-orthoplex, constructed by an expansion operation applied to the regular 6-orthoplex. The highest form, the pentisteriruncicantitruncated 6-orthoplex, is called an omnitruncated 6-orthoplex with all of the nodes ringed.
