There are 20 unique hexications for the 7-simplex, including all permutations of truncations, cantellations, runcinations, sterications, and pentellations.
The simple hexicated 7-simplex is also called an expanded 7-simplex, with only the first and last nodes ringed, is constructed by an expansion operation applied to the regular 7-simplex. The highest form, the hexipentisteriruncicantitruncated 7-simplex is more simply called a omnitruncated 7-simplex with all of the nodes ringed.
Hexicated 7-simplex
In seven-dimensional geometry, a hexicated 7-simplex is a convex uniform 7-polytope, a hexication (6th order truncation) of the regular 7-simplex, or alternately can be seen as an expansion operation.
Root vectors
Its 56 vertices represent the root vectors of the simple Lie group A7.

Omnitruncated 7-simplex
The omnitruncated 7-simplex is composed of 40320 (8 factorial) vertices and is the largest uniform 7-polytope in the A7 symmetry of the regular 7-simplex. It can also be called the hexipentisteriruncicantitruncated 7-simplex which is the long name for the omnitruncation for 7 dimensions, with all reflective mirrors active.
Permutohedron and related tessellation
The omnitruncated 7-simplex is the permutohedron of order 8. The omnitruncated 7-simplex is a zonotope, the Minkowski sum of eight line segments parallel to the eight lines through the origin and the eight vertices of the 7-simplex.
Like all uniform omnitruncated n-simplices, the omnitruncated 7-simplex can tessellate space by itself, in this case 7-dimensional space with three facets around each ridge. It has Coxeter-Dynkin diagram of .
