The order-6 hexagonal tiling honeycomb is a paracompact regular tiling of 3D hyperbolic space. 6 ideal hexagonal tilings meet at each edge. All vertices are ideal points at infinity, with infinitely many hexagonal tilings meeting at each vertex in a triangular tiling arrangement.

Representations[edit | edit source]

The order-6 hexagonal tiling honeycomb has the following Coxeter diagrams:

  • x6o3o6o () (full symmetry)
  • x6o3o3o3*b () (hexagonal tilings of two types)
