On the volume formula for a hyperbolic octahedron with mm2-symmetry (Q2314252)

The authors provide explicit formulae by means of volume integrals for compact hyperbolic octahedra with mm2-symmetry (i.e. that are invariant under reflections from two mutually orthogonal planes crossing them along the rib cycles) expressed in terms of dihedral angles, relations with previously known similar results from the literature being discussed. In particular the Galiulin-Mikhalev-Sabitov theorem is extended to classical non-Euclidean spaces. An algorithm to compute volume of this kind of octahedra in spherical spaces is sketched.
