Order-4 square hosohedral honeycomb

In geometry, the order-4 square hosohedral honeycomb is a regular space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb) with Schläfli symbol {2,4,4}. It has 4 square hosohedra {2,4} around each edge. In other words, it is a packing of infinitely tall square columns. It is a degenerate honeycomb in Euclidean space, but can be seen as a projection onto the sphere. Its vertex figure, a square tiling is seen on each hemisphere.

Truncated order-4 square hosohedral honeycomb
The {2,4,4} honeycomb can be truncated as t{2,4,4} or {}×{4,4}, Coxeter diagram, seen as a layer of cubes, partially shown here with alternately colored cubic cells. Thorold Gosset identified this semiregular infinite honeycomb as a cubic semicheck.

The alternation of this honeycomb,, consists of infinite square pyramids and infinite tetrahedrons, between 2 square tilings.
