11-cell
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In mathematics, the 11-cell (hendecachoron) is a four-dimensional self-dual abstract regular polytope (polychoron). Its 11 facets are hemi-icosahedral. It also has 11 vertices, 55 edges and 55 faces. Its symmetry group is the projective special linear group L2(11), so it has 660 symmetries. It has Schläfli symbol {3,5,3}.
It was discovered by Branko Grünbaum in 1977, who constructed it by pasting hemi-icosahedra together, three per edge until the shape closed up. It was independently discovered by H. S. M. Coxeter in 1984, who studied its structure and symmetry in greater depth.
