The complete set of uniform polyhedra

John Skilling · Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London Series A Mathematical and Physical Sciences · 1975

Abstract A definitive enumeration of all uniform polyhedra is presented (a uniform polyhedron has all vertices equivalent and all its faces regular polygons). It is shown that the set of uniform polyhedra presented by Coxeter, Longuet-Higgins & Miller (1953) is essentially complete. However, after a natural extension of their definition of a polyhedron to allow the coincidence of two or more edges, one extra polyhedron is found, namely the great disnub dirhombidodecahedron.
