Order-4-5 square honeycomb
In the geometry of hyperbolic 3-space , the order-4-5 square honeycomb is a regular space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb ) with Schläfli symbol {4,4,5}. It has five square tiling {4,4} around each edge. All vertices are ultra-ideal (existing beyond the ideal boundary) with infinitely many square tiling existing around each vertex in an order-5 square tiling vertex arrangement .

Properties
Regular
In the geometry of hyperbolic 3-space , the order-4-6 square honeycomb is a regular space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb ) with Schläfli symbol {4,4,6}. It has six square tiling , {4,4}, around each edge. All vertices are ultra-ideal (existing beyond the ideal boundary) with infinitely many square tiling existing around each vertex in an order-6 square tiling vertex arrangement .
It has a second construction as a uniform honeycomb, Schläfli symbol {4,(4,3,4)}, Coxeter diagram, , with alternating types or colors of square tiling cells. In Coxeter notation the half symmetry is [4,4,6,1+ ] = [4,((4,3,4))].

Properties
Regular
In the geometry of hyperbolic 3-space , the order-4-infinite square honeycomb is a regular space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb ) with Schläfli symbol {4,4,∞}. It has infinitely many square tiling , {4,4}, around each edge. All vertices are ultra-ideal (existing beyond the ideal boundary) with infinitely many square tiling existing around each vertex in an infinite-order square tiling vertex arrangement .
It has a second construction as a uniform honeycomb, Schläfli symbol {4,(4,∞,4)}, Coxeter diagram, = , with alternating types or colors of square tiling cells. In Coxeter notation the half symmetry is [4,4,∞,1+ ] = [4,((4,∞,4))].
