    Properties Regular

    In the geometryofhyperbolic 3-space, the order-3-8 hexagonal honeycomb or (6,3,8 honeycomb) is a regular space-filling tessellation (orhoneycomb) with Schläfli symbol {6,3,8}. It has eight hexagonal tilings, {6,3}, around each edge. All vertices are ultra-ideal (existing beyond the ideal boundary) with infinitely many hexagonal tilings existing around each vertex in an order-8 triangular tiling vertex arrangement.


    Poincaré disk model

    It has a second construction as a uniform honeycomb, Schläfli symbol {6,(3,4,3)}, Coxeter diagram, , with alternating types or colors of tetrahedral cells. In Coxeter notation the half symmetry is [6,3,8,1+] = [6,((3,4,3))].
