Classifying Regular Polyhedra and Polytopes using Wythoff's Construction
From MaRDI portal
Abstract: Wythoff's construction associates a uniform polytope to a Coxeter diagram whose vertices are decorated with crosses, which indicate the subgroup stabilizing a generic point. Champagne, Kjiri, Patera, and Sharp remarked that by associating more information to a Coxeter diagram, one can furthermore determine the types and number of faces of such a polytope. This article provides a proof of this result, and uses it to provide a classification of the regular polytopes.
