In the geometry of hyperbolic 3-space, the order-4-4 pentagonal honeycomb a regular space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb). Each infinite cell consists of a pentagonal tiling whose vertices lie on a 2-hypercycle, each of which has a limiting circle on the ideal sphere.

Geometry

[edit ]

The Schläfli symbol of the order-4-4 pentagonal honeycomb is {5,4,4}, with four order-4 pentagonal tilings meeting at each edge. The vertex figure of this honeycomb is a square tiling, {4,4}.
