 Polyhedral surface

A defining characteristic of almost all kinds of polyhedra is that just two faces join along any common edge. This ensures that the polyhedral surface is continuously connected and does not end abruptly or split off in different directions.

 Edges

Edges have two important characteristics (unless the polyhedron is complex):

• An edge joins just two vertices.
• An edge joins just two faces.

These two characteristics are dual to each other.

 محددة اويلر

The Euler characteristic χ relates the number of vertices V, edges E, and faces F of a polyhedron:

$\chi =V-E+F.\$

For a convex polyhedron or more generally for any simply connected polyhedron whose faces are also simply connected and whose boundary is a manifold, χ = 2. For a detailed discussion, see Proofs and Refutations by Imre Lakatos.

 Orientability

Some polyhedra, such as all convex polyhedra, have two distinct sides to their surface, for example one side can consistently be coloured black and the other white. We say that the figure is orientable.

But for some polyhedra this is not possible, and the figure is said to be non-orientable. All polyhedra with odd-numbered Euler characteristic are non-orientable. A given figure with even χ < 2 may or may not be orientable.

 Vertex figure

For every vertex one can define a vertex figure, which describes the local structure of the figure around the vertex. If the vertex figure is a regular polygon, then the vertex itself is said to be regular.

 Duality

For every polyhedron there exists a dual polyhedron having:

• faces in place of the original's vertices and vice versa,
• the same number of edges
• the same Euler characteristic and orientability

The dual of a convex polyhedron can be obtained by the process of polar reciprocation.

 Symmetry groups

The polyhedral symmetry groups are all point groups and include:

• T - chiral tetrahedral symmetry; the rotation group for a regular tetrahedron; order 12.
• T_d - full tetrahedral symmetry; the symmetry group for a regular tetrahedron; order 24.
• T_h - pyritohedral symmetry; order 24. The symmetry of a pyritohedron.
• O - chiral octahedral symmetry;the rotation group of the cube and octahedron; order 24.
• O_h - full octahedral symmetry; the symmetry group of the cube and octahedron; order 48.
• I - chiral icosahedral symmetry; the rotation group of the icosahedron and the dodecahedron; order 60.
• I_h - full icosahedral symmetry; the symmetry group of the icosahedron and the dodecahedron; order 120.
• C_nv - n-fold pyramidal symmetry
• D_nh - n-fold prismatic symmetry
• D_nv - n-fold antiprismatic symmetry

Those with chiral symmetry do not have reflection symmetry and hence have two enantiomorphous forms which are reflections of each other. The snub Archimedean polyhedra have this property.

 Other polyhedra with regular faces

 Equal regular faces

A few families of polyhedra, where every face is the same kind of polygon:

• Deltahedra have equilateral triangles for faces.

• With regard to polyhedra whose faces are all squares: if coplanar faces are not allowed, even if they are disconnected, there is only the cube. Otherwise there is also the result of pasting six cubes to the sides of one, all seven of the same size; it has 30 square faces (counting disconnected faces in the same plane as separate). This can be extended in one, two, or three directions: we can consider the union of arbitrarily many copies of these structures, obtained by translations of (expressed in cube sizes) (2,0,0), (0,2,0), and/or (0,0,2), hence with each adjacent pair having one common cube. The result can be any connected set of cubes with positions (a,b,c), with integers a,b,c of which at most one is even.

• There is no special name for polyhedra whose faces are all equilateral pentagons or pentagrams. There are infinitely many of these, but only one is convex: the dodecahedron. The rest are assembled by (pasting) combinations of the regular polyhedra described earlier: the dodecahedron, the small stellated dodecahedron, the great stellated dodecahedron and the great icosahedron.

There exists no polyhedron whose faces are all identical and are regular polygons with six or more sides because the vertex of three regular hexagons defines a plane. (See infinite skew polyhedron for exceptions with zig-zagging vertex figures.)

 Deltahedra

A deltahedron (plural deltahedra) is a polyhedron whose faces are all equilateral triangles. There are infinitely many deltahedra, but only eight of these are convex:

• 3 regular convex polyhedra (3 of the Platonic solids)
  • Tetrahedron
  • Octahedron
  • Icosahedron
• 5 non-uniform convex polyhedra (5 of the Johnson solids)
  • Triangular dipyramid
  • Pentagonal dipyramid
  • Snub disphenoid
  • Triaugmented triangular prism
  • Gyroelongated square dipyramid
