Truncation (geometry): Uniform truncation, Uniform truncation in regular polyhedra and tilings and higher & Truncation of polygons

In geometry, a truncation is an operation in any dimension that cuts polytope vertices, creating a new facet in place of each vertex. The term originates from Kepler's names for the Archimedean solids.
