The order-4 hexagonal tiling is a regular tiling of the hyperbolic plane. 4 hexagons join at each vertex.
It can be formed by rectifying the order-6 hexagonal tiling.
Representations[edit | edit source]
The order-4 hexagonal tiling has the following Coxeter diagrams:
- x6o4o (full symmetry)
- o6x6o (
) (as rectified order-6 hexagonal tiling)
- x3x6o6*a (hexagons of 3 types, trapezivert)
