Geometry

Geometry arose as the field of knowledge dealing with spatial relationships. Geometry was one of the two fields of pre-modern mathematics, the other being the study of numbers ....

, 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.
