Abstract

The paper is devoted to the study of metric properties of semiregular polytopesin Euclidean spaces $\mathbb{R}^n$ for $n\geqslant 4$ (Gosset polytopes). Theresults obtained here enable us to complete the classification of regular andsemiregular polytopes in Euclidean spaces whose sets of vertices form normalhomogeneous or Clifford–Wolf homogeneous metric spaces.
