In eight-dimensional Euclidean geometry, the cyclotruncated 8-simplex honeycomb is a space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb). The tessellation fills space by 8-simplex, truncated 8-simplex, bitruncated 8-simplex, tritruncated 8-simplex, and quadritruncated 8-simplex facets. These facet types occur in proportions of 2:2:2:2:1 respectively in the whole honeycomb.
Structure
It can be constructed by nine sets of parallel hyperplanes that divide space. The hyperplane intersections generate cyclotruncated 7-simplex honeycomb divisions on each hyperplane.
