In the geometry of hyperbolic 4-space, the order-5 tesseractic honeycomb is one of five compact regular space-filling tessellations (or honeycombs). With Schläfli symbol {4,3,3,5}, it has five 8-cells (also known as tesseracts) around each face. Its dual is the order-4 120-cell honeycomb, {5,3,3,4}.
Related polytopes and honeycombs
It is related to the Euclidean 4-space (order-4) tesseractic honeycomb, {4,3,3,4}, and the 5-cube, {4,3,3,3} in Euclidean 5-space. The 5-cube can also be seen as an order-3 tesseractic honeycomb on the surface of a 4-sphere.
