Orthogonal projections in D7 Coxeter plane

In seven-dimensional geometry, a stericated 7-cube (or runcinated 7-demicube) is a convex uniform 7-polytope, being a runcination of the uniform 7-demicube. There are 4 unique runcinations for the 7-demicube including truncation and cantellation.

Cartesian coordinates

The Cartesian coordinates for the vertices of a steric 7-cube centered at the origin are coordinate permutations:

(±1,±1,±1,±1,±3,±3,±3)

with an odd number of plus signs.

These polytopes are based on the 7-demicube, a member 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 BC6 symmetry, and 32 are unique: Template:Demihepteract family
