elementary geometry, a
polytope is a
geometric object with flat
sides (faces).
Polytopes are the
generalization of three-dimensional
polyhedra to any...

There are six
convex and ten star
regular 4-
polytopes,
giving a
total of sixteen. The
convex regular 4-
polytopes were
first described by the
Swiss mathematician...

volume of the
Birkhoff polytopes. This has been done for n ≤ 10. It is
known to be
equal to the
volume of a
polytope ****ociated with

Coxeter lists a few of
these in his book
Regular Polytopes.

polytopes were
discovered by the
Swiss mathematician Ludwig Schläfli
before 1853. The two-dimensional
analogue of a 4-
polytope is a polygon...

traditional polytopes (also
called classical or
geometric polytopes) may not be so for
abstract ones, and vice versa. For example, a
traditional polytope is regular...

There are no
exceptional regular polytopes in
these dimensions. See also the list of
regular polytopes.
Regular polytopes can be
