In four-dimensional Euclidean geometry, the truncated 24-cell honeycomb is a uniform space-filling honeycomb. It can be seen as a truncation of the regular 24-cell honeycomb, containing tesseract and truncated 24-cell cells.

It has a uniform alternation, called the snub 24-cell honeycomb. It is a snub from the ${\tilde {D}}_{4}$ {\displaystyle {\tilde {D}}_{4}} construction. This truncated 24-cell has Schläfli symbol t{3^1,1,1,1}, and its snub is represented as s{3^1,1,1,1}.

Symmetry constructions

[edit ]

There are five different symmetry constructions of this tessellation. Each symmetry can be represented by different arrangements of colored truncated 24-cell facets. In all cases, four truncated 24-cells, and one tesseract meet at each vertex, but the vertex figures have different symmetry generators.

Coxeter group	Facets	Vertex figure symmetry (order)
${\tilde {F}}_{4}$ {\displaystyle {\tilde {F}}_{4}} = [3,4,3,3]	4: 1:	, [3,3] (24)
${\tilde {F}}_{4}$ {\displaystyle {\tilde {F}}_{4}} = [3,3,4,3]	3: 1: 1:	, [3] (6)
${\tilde {C}}_{4}$ {\displaystyle {\tilde {C}}_{4}} = [4,3,3,4]	2,2: 1:	, [2] (4)
${\tilde {B}}_{4}$ {\displaystyle {\tilde {B}}_{4}} = [3^1,1,3,4]	1,1: 2: 1:	, [ ] (2)
${\tilde {D}}_{4}$ {\displaystyle {\tilde {D}}_{4}} = [3^1,1,1,1]	1,1,1,1: 1:	[ ]⁺ (1)
