In seven-dimensional geometry, a cantellated 7-simplex is a convex uniform 7-polytope, being a cantellation of the regular 7-simplex.

There are unique 6 degrees of cantellation for the 7-simplex, including truncations.

Coordinates

The vertices of the cantellated 7-simplex can be most simply positioned in 8-space as permutations of (0,0,0,0,0,1,1,2). This construction is based on facets of the cantellated 8-orthoplex.
