Rectified 8-orthoplexes#Rectified 8-orthoplex

The rectified 8-orthoplex has 112 vertices. These represent the root vectors of the simple Lie group D₈. The vertices can be seen in 3 hyperplanes, with the 28 vertices rectified 7-simplexs cells on opposite sides, and 56 vertices of an expanded 7-simplex passing through the center. When combined with the 16 vertices of the 8-orthoplex, these vertices represent the 128 root vectors of the B₈ and C₈ simple Lie groups.

The rectified 8-orthoplex is the vertex figure for the demiocteractic honeycomb.

There are two Coxeter groups associated with the rectified 8-orthoplex, one with the C₈ or [4,3⁶] Coxeter group, and a lower symmetry with two copies of heptcross facets, alternating, with the D₈ or [3^5,1,1] Coxeter group.

Cartesian coordinates for the vertices of a rectified 8-orthoplex, centered at the origin, edge length $\backslash sqrt\{2\}$ are all permutations of:
