Pentic 7-cubes

In seven-dimensional geometry, a pentic 7-cube is a convex uniform 7-polytope, related to the uniform 7-demicube. There are 8 unique forms.

7-demicube (half 7-cube, h{4,35})	Pentic 7-cube h5{4,35}	Penticantic 7-cube h2,5{4,35}
Pentiruncic 7-cube h3,5{4,35}	Pentiruncicantic 7-cube h2,3,5{4,35}	Pentisteric 7-cube h4,5{4,35}
Pentistericantic 7-cube h2,4,5{4,35}	Pentisteriruncic 7-cube h3,4,5{4,35}	Penticsteriruncicantic 7-cube h2,3,4,5{4,35}

Related polytopes

This polytope is based on the 7-demicube, a part of a dimensional family of uniform polytopes called demihypercubes for being alternation of the hypercube family.

There are 95 uniform polytopes with D₇ symmetry, 63 are shared by the BC₇ symmetry, and 32 are unique:
