For the group algebra of the finite non-crystallographic Coxeter group of type H, its Gröbner-Shirshov basis is constructed as well as the corresponding standard monomials, which describe explicitly all symmetries acting on the 120-cell and produce a natural operation table between the 14400 elements for the group.

Regular polyhedra and related structures such as complexes and nets play a prominent role in the study of materials such as crystals, nanotubes and viruses. An abstract regular polyhedron {\cal P} is the combinatorial analog of a classical regular geometric polyhedron. It is a partially ordered set of elements called faces that are completely characterized by a string C-group (G, T), which consists of a group G generated by a set T of involutions.

The study of the polyhedra described in this paper is relevant to the icosahedral symmetry in the assembly of various spherical molecules, biomolecules and viruses. A symmetry-breaking mechanism is applied to the family of polytopes {\cal V}_{H_{3}}(\lambda) constructed for each type of dominant point λ. Here a polytope {\cal V}_{H_{3}}(\lambda) is considered as a dual of a {\cal D}_{H_{3}}(\lambda) polytope obtained from the action of the Coxeter group H on a single point \lambda\in{\bb R}^{3}.

A geometric realization of an abstract polyhedron {\cal P} is a mapping that sends an i-face to an open set of dimension i. This work adapts a method based on Wythoff construction to generate a full rank realization of an abstract regular polyhedron from its automorphism group Γ. The method entails finding a real orthogonal representation of Γ of degree 3 and applying its image to suitably chosen (not necessarily connected) open sets in space.

This paper considers Platonic solids/polytopes in the real Euclidean space R(n) of dimension 3 ≤ n < ∞. The Platonic solids/polytopes are described together with their faces of dimensions 0 ≤ d ≤ n - 1. Dual pairs of Platonic polytopes are considered in parallel.
