Orthogonal projections in D6 Coxeter plane

In six-dimensional geometry, a runcic 6-cube is a convex uniform 6-polytope. There are 2 unique runcic for the 6-cube.

Cartesian coordinates

The Cartesian coordinates for the vertices of a runcic 6-cube centered at the origin are coordinate permutations:

(±1,±1,±1,±3,±3,±3)

with an odd number of plus signs.

Related polytopes

This polytope is based on the 6-demicube, a part of a dimensional family of uniform polytopes called demihypercubes for being alternation of the hypercube family.

There are 47 uniform polytopes with D₆ symmetry, 31 are shared by the B₆ symmetry, and 16 are unique:
