Uniform 1_k2 polytope

The family starts uniquely as 6-polytopes, but can be extended backwards to include the 5-demicube (demipenteract) in 5-dimensions, and the 4-simplex (5-cell) in 4-dimensions.

Each polytope is constructed from 1_k-1,2 and (n-1)-demicube facets. Each has a vertex figure of a {3^1,n-2,2} polytope is a birectified n-simplex, t₂{3ⁿ}.

The sequence ends with k=6 (n=10), as an infinite tessellation of 9-dimensional hyperbolic space.

The complete family of 1_k2 polytope polytopes are:

1. 5-cell: 1₀₂, (5 tetrahedral cells)
2. 1₁₂ polytope, (16 5-cell, and 10 16-cell facets)
3. 1₂₂ polytope, (54 demipenteract facets)
4. 1₃₂ polytope, (56 1₂₂ and 126 demihexeract facets)
5. 1₄₂ polytope, (240 1₃₂ and 2160 demihepteract facets)
6. 1₅₂ honeycomb, tessellates Euclidean 8-space (∞ 1₄₂ and ∞ demiocteract facets)
7. 1₆₂ honeycomb, tessellates hyperbolic 9-space (∞ 1₅₂ and ∞ demienneract facets)
