| | |
| The '''tetrahedral-octahedral honeycomb''' or '''alternated cubic honeycomb''' or '''half cubic honeycomb''' is a space-filling [[tessellation]] (or [[honeycomb (geometry)|honeycomb]]) in [[Euclidean 3-space]]. It is composed of alternating [[octahedron|octahedra]] and [[tetrahedron|tetrahedra]] in a ratio of 1:2.
| |
| | |
| It is [[vertex-transitive]] with 8 [[tetrahedra]] and 6 [[octahedra]] around each [[Vertex (geometry)|vertex]]. It is [[edge-transitive]] with 2 tetrahedra and 2 octahedra alternating on each edge.
| |
| | |
| [[John Horton Conway]] calls this honeycomb a '''Tetroctahedrille''', and its dual [[Rhombic dodecahedral honeycomb|dodecahedrille]].
| |
| | |
| It is part of an infinite family of [[uniform tessellation]]s called [[alternated hypercubic honeycomb]]s, formed as an [[Alternation (geometry)|alternation]] of a hypercubic honeycomb and being composed of [[demihypercube]] and [[cross-polytope]] facets.
| |
| | |
| In this case of 3-space, the [[cubic honeycomb]] is alternated, reducing the cubic cells to tetrahedra, and the deleted vertices create octahedral voids. As such it can be represented by an extended [[Schläfli symbol]] h{4,3,4} as containing ''half'' the vertices of the {4,3,4} cubic honeycomb.
| |
| | |
| There's a similar honeycomb called [[gyrated tetrahedral-octahedral honeycomb]] which has layers rotated 60 degrees so half the edges have neighboring rather than alternating tetrahedra and octahedra.
| |
| | |
| ==Cartesian coordinates==
| |
| | |
| For an ''alternted cubic honeycomb'', with edges parallel to the axes and with an edge length of 1, the [[Cartesian coordinates]] of the vertices are: (For all integral values: ''i'',''j'',''k'' with ''i''+''j''+''k'' [[even number|even]])

| === Projection by folding ===
| |
| | |
| The ''alternated cubic honeycomb'' can be orthogonally projected into the planar [[square tiling]] by a [[Coxeter–Dynkin diagram#Geometric folding|geometric folding]] operation that maps one pairs of mirrors into each other. The projection of the ''alternated cubic honeycomb'' creates two offset copies of the square tiling [[vertex arrangement]] of the plane:

| Its [[vertex arrangement]] represents an [[A3 lattice|A<sub>3</sub> lattice]] or ''D<sub>3</sub> lattice''.<ref>http://www.math.rwth-aachen.de/~Gabriele.Nebe/LATTICES/D3.html</ref><ref>http://www.math.rwth-aachen.de/~Gabriele.Nebe/LATTICES/A3.html</ref> It is the 3-dimensional case of a [[simplectic honeycomb]]. Its Voronoi cell is a [[rhombic dodecahedron]], the dual of the [[cuboctahedron]] vertex figure for the tet-oct honeycomb.
| |
| | |
| The D{{sup sub|+|3}} packing can be constructed by the union of two D<sub>3</sub> (or A<sub>3</sub>) lattices. The D{{sup sub|+|n}} packing is only a lattice for even dimensions. The kissing number is 2<sup>2</sup>=4, (2<sup>n-1</sup> for n<8, 240 for n=8, and 2n(n-1) for n>8).<ref>Conway (1998), p. 119</ref>

| The A{{sup sub|*|3}} or D{{sup sub|*|3}} lattice (also called A{{sup sub|4|3}} or D{{sup sub|4|3}}) can be constructed by the union of all four A<sub>3</sub> lattices, and is identical to the [[vertex arrangement]] of the [[disphenoid tetrahedral honeycomb]], dual honeycomb of the uniform [[bitruncated cubic honeycomb]]:<ref>http://www.math.rwth-aachen.de/~Gabriele.Nebe/LATTICES/Ds3.html</ref> It is also the [[body centered cubic]], the union of two [[cubic honeycomb]]s in dual positions.

| |
| | |
| The [[kissing number]] of the D{{sup sub|*|3}} lattice is 8<ref>Conway (1998), p. 120</ref> and its [[Voronoi tessellation]] is a [[bitruncated cubic honeycomb]], {{CDD|branch_11|4a4b|nodes}}, containing all [[truncated octahedron|truncated octahedral]] [[Voronoi cell]]s, {{CDD|node|4|node_1|3|node_1}}.<ref>Conway (1998), p. 466</ref>

| The [4,3,4], {{CDD|node|4|node|3|node|4|node}}, [[Coxeter group]] generates 15 permutations of uniform tessellations, 9 with distinct geometry including the alternated cubic honeycomb. The [[Expansion (geometry)|expanded]] cubic honeycomb (also known as the runcinated tesseractic honeycomb) is geometrically identical to the cubic honeycomb.
