The special cuts of 600-cell

Abstract

A polytope is called {\em regular-faced} if every one of its facets is a regular polytope. The 4-dimensional regular-faced polytopes were determined by G. Blind and R. Blind \cite{BlBl2,roswitha,roswitha2}. The last class of such polytopes is the one which consists of polytopes obtained by removing a set of non-adjacent vertices (an independent set) of the 600-cell. These independent sets are enumerated up to isomorphism and it is determined that the number of polytopes in this last class is $314,248,344$.
