A cube has the same set of symmetries, since it is the polyhedron that is dual to an octahedron. The group of orientation-preserving symmetries is S 4 , the symmetric group or the group of permutations of four objects, since there is exactly one such symmetry for each permutation of the four diagonals of the cube.
This is an indexed list of the uniform and stellated polyhedra from the book Polyhedron Models, by Magnus Wenninger.. The book was written as a guide book to building polyhedra as physical models.

The deltoidal icositetrahedron is a member of a family of duals to the uniform polyhedra related to the cube and regular octahedron. When projected onto a sphere (see right), it can be seen that the edges make up the edges of a cube and regular octahedron arranged in their dual positions. It can also be seen that the 3- and 4-fold corners can ...
A perfect octahedron belongs to the point group O h. Examples of octahedral compounds are sulfur hexafluoride SF 6 and molybdenum hexacarbonyl Mo(CO) 6 . The term "octahedral" is used somewhat loosely by chemists, focusing on the geometry of the bonds to the central atom and not considering differences among the ligands themselves.
A normal abelian subgroup has distortion determined by the eigenvalues of the conjugation overgroup representation; formally, if g ∈ G acts on V ≤ G with eigenvalue λ, then V is at least exponentially distorted with base λ. For many non-normal but still abelian subgroups, the distortion of the normal core gives a strong lower bound. [1]
WASHINGTON (Reuters) -U.S. President-elect Donald Trump on Saturday named his social media platform CEO Devin Nunes to lead an intelligence advisory panel and said his former intelligence chief ...
(To some extent rotation influences the geometry via Coriolis forces and centrifugal distortion, but this is negligible for the present discussion.) In addition to translation and rotation, a third type of motion is molecular vibration , which corresponds to internal motions of the atoms such as bond stretching and bond angle variation.
