Properties Regular

In geometry, the great icosahedral 120-cell, great polyicosahedron or great faceted 600-cell is a regular star 4-polytope with Schläfli symbol {3,5/2,5}. It is one of 10 regular Schläfli-Hess polytopes.

It has the same edge arrangement as the great stellated 120-cell, and grand stellated 120-cell, and face arrangement of the grand 600-cell.

With its dual, it forms the compound of great grand 120-cell and great icosahedral 120-cell.
