The order-4 dodecahedral honeycomb, or just dodecahedral honeycomb, is a compact regular tiling of 3D hyperbolic space. 4 dodecahedra meet at an edge, and 8 meet at a vertex.
Representations[edit | edit source]
A dodecahedral honeycomb has the following coxeter diagrams:
- x5o3o4o () (full symmetry)
- x5o3o *b3o () (half symmetry)
