Hendecagrammic prism

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The four regular hendecagrams
{11/2}, {11/3}, {11/4}, and {11/5}

In geometry, a hendecagrammic prism is a star polyhedron made from two identical regular hendecagrams connected by squares. The related hendecagrammic antiprisms are made from two identical regular hendecagrams connected by equilateral triangles.

Hendecagrammic prisms and bipyramids

[edit]

There are 4 hendecagrammic uniform prisms, and 6 hendecagrammic uniform antiprisms. The prisms are constructed by 4.4.11/q vertex figures, Coxeter diagram. The hendecagrammic bipyramids, duals to the hendecagrammic prisms are also given.

Hendecagrammic antiprisms

[edit]

The antiprisms with 3.3.3.3.11/q vertex figures, . Uniform antiprisms exist for p/q>3/2,[1] and are called crossed for p/q<2. For hendecagonal antiprism, two crossed antiprisms can not be constructed as uniform (with equilateral triangles): 11/8, and 11/9.

The hendecagrammic trapezohedra are duals to the hendecagrammic antiprisms.
