1–18: 5 convex regular and 13 convex semiregular; 20–22, 41: 4 non-convex regular; 19–66: Special 48 stellations/compounds (Nonregulars not given on this list) 67–109: 43 non-convex non-snub uniform; 110–119: 10 non-convex snub uniform; Chi: the Euler characteristic, χ. Uniform tilings on the plane correspond to a torus topology ...
A hexahedron (pl.: hexahedra or hexahedrons) or sexahedron (pl.: sexahedra or sexahedrons) is any polyhedron with six faces. A cube, for example, is a regular hexahedron with all its faces square, and three squares around each vertex. There are seven topologically distinct convex hexahedra, [1] one of which exists in two mirror image forms ...
Every convex polyhedron is combinatorially equivalent to a canonical polyhedron, a polyhedron that has a midsphere whose center coincides with the centroid of the polyhedron. The shape of the canonical polyhedron (but not its scale or position) is uniquely determined by the combinatorial structure of the given polyhedron. [26]
For example, in a polyhedron (3-dimensional polytope), a face is a facet, an edge is a ridge, and a vertex is a peak. Vertex figure : not itself an element of a polytope, but a diagram showing how the elements meet.
[1] [3] Along with the rectangular cuboids, parallelepiped is a cuboid with six parallelogram. Rhombohedron is a cuboid with six rhombus faces. A square frustum is a frustum with a square base, but the rest of its faces are quadrilaterals; the square frustum is formed by truncating the apex of a square pyramid .
In mathematics, and more specifically in polyhedral combinatorics, a Goldberg polyhedron is a convex polyhedron made from hexagons and pentagons.They were first described in 1937 by Michael Goldberg (1902–1990).

Coxeter, Longuet-Higgins & Miller (1954) define uniform polyhedra to be vertex-transitive polyhedra with regular faces. They define a polyhedron to be a finite set of polygons such that each side of a polygon is a side of just one other polygon, such that no non-empty proper subset of the polygons has the same property.
