Abstract: | The paper studies various relationships between locally toroidal regular 4-polytopes of types {6, 3,p} and {3, 6, 3}. These relationships are based on corresponding relationships between the regular honeycombs with the same Schläfli-symbol in hyperbolic 3-space. Also the paper discusses regular tessellations (secretions of rank 3) which are locally inscribed into regular 4-polytopes. In particular, this leads to local criteria for the finiteness of the polytopes. |
