Honeycombs (geometry)

24-cell honeycomb honeycomb

In the geometry of hyperbolic 5-space, the 24-cell honeycomb honeycomb is one of five paracompact regular space-filling tessellations (or honeycombs). It is called paracompact because it has infinite facets, whose vertices exist on 4-horospheres and converge to a single ideal point at infinity. With Schläfli symbol {3,4,3,3,3}, it has three 24-cell honeycombs around each cell. It is dual to the 5-orthoplex honeycomb. (Wikipedia).

Particles escaping from a large honeycomb maze

This simulation took quite a while to render, because there are many particles (20000), and the maze is large (40 by 48), so that at each time step there are many possible intersections of trajectory and walls to test. It is probably possible to optimize these computations, but usually the
