Alternate names

• E. L. Elte named it V₁₂₆ (for its 126 vertices) in his 1912 listing of semiregular polytopes.^[1]
• It was called 2₃₁ by Coxeter for its bifurcating Coxeter-Dynkin diagram, with a single ring on the end of the 2-node sequence.
• Pentacontihexa-pentacosiheptacontihexa-exon (Acronym laq) - 56-576 facetted polyexon (Jonathan Bowers)^[2]

Construction

It is created by a Wythoff construction upon a set of 7 hyperplane mirrors in 7-dimensional space.

The facet information can be extracted from its Coxeter-Dynkin diagram, .

Removing the node on the short branch leaves the 6-simplex. There are 576 of these facets. These facets are centered on the locations of the vertices of the 3₂₁ polytope, .

Removing the node on the end of the 3-length branch leaves the 2₂₁. There are 56 of these facets. These facets are centered on the locations of the vertices of the 1₃₂ polytope, .

The vertex figure is determined by removing the ringed node and ringing the neighboring node. This makes the 6-demicube, 1₃₁, .

Seen in a configuration matrix, the element counts can be derived by mirror removal and ratios of Coxeter group orders.^[3]
