Truncated order-7 triangular tiling

In geometry, the order-7 truncated triangular tiling, sometimes called the hyperbolic soccerball,[1] is a semiregular tiling of the hyperbolic plane.

There are two hexagons and one heptagon on each vertex, forming a pattern similar to a conventional soccer ball (truncated icosahedron) with heptagons in place of pentagons.

This tiling is called a hyperbolic soccerball (football) for its similarity to the truncated icosahedron pattern used on soccer balls.

Small portions of it as a hyperbolic surface can be constructed in 3-space.

This hyperbolic tiling is topologically related as a part of sequence of uniform truncated polyhedra with vertex configurations (n.6.6), and [n,3] Coxeter group symmetry.
