Steric 5-cubes

In five-dimensional geometry, a steric 5-cube or (steric 5-demicube or sterihalf 5-cube) is a convex uniform 5-polytope. There are unique 4 steric forms of the 5-cube. Steric 5-cubes have half the vertices of stericated 5-cubes.

Alternate names

  • Steric penteract, runcinated demipenteract
  • Small prismated hemipenteract (siphin) (Jonathan Bowers)
  • Cartesian coordinates

    The Cartesian coordinates for the 80 vertices of a steric 5-cube centered at the origin are the permutations of

    (±1,±1,±1,±1,±3)

    with an odd number of plus signs.

    Alternate names

  • Prismatotruncated hemipenteract (pithin) (Jonathan Bowers)
  • Cartesian coordinates

    The Cartesian coordinates for the 480 vertices of a stericantic 5-cube centered at the origin are coordinate permutations:

    (±1,±1,±3,±3,±5)

    with an odd number of plus signs.

    Alternate names

  • Prismatorhombated hemipenteract (pirhin) (Jonathan Bowers)
  • Cartesian coordinates

    The Cartesian coordinates for the 320 vertices of a steriruncic 5-cube centered at the origin are coordinate permutations:

    (±1,±1,±1,±3,±5)

    with an odd number of plus signs.

    Alternate names

  • Great prismated hemipenteract (giphin) (Jonathan Bowers)
  • Cartesian coordinates

    The Cartesian coordinates for the 960 vertices of a steriruncicantic 5-cube centered at the origin are coordinate permutations:

    (±1,±1,±3,±5,±7)

    with an odd number of plus signs.

    This polytope is based on the 5-demicube, a part of a dimensional family of uniform polytopes called demihypercubes for being alternation of the hypercube family.

    There are 23 uniform polytera (uniform 5-polytope) that can be constructed from the D5 symmetry of the 5-demicube, of which are unique to this family, and 15 are shared within the 5-cube family.
