A primary parallelohedron is a polyhedron that can fill space with infinite translated copies.


It is known (e.g., Coxeter, H. S. M. Regular Polytopes, 3rd ed. New York: Dover, pp. 29-30, 1973; or, Tutton, A. E. H. Crystallography and Practical Crystal Measurement, 2nd ed. London: Lubrecht & Cramer, 1964.) that the primary parallelohedra are the cube, hexagonal prism, elongated dodecahedron, rhombic dodecahedron, and truncated octahedron.


Is there is a classification for any higher dimensions? What are the primary d-parallelotopes?


The following is a conjecture of mine regarding the case of $d=4$.




---


Conjecture: There are exactly 7 primary 4-parallelotopes:


(1) Hypercube


(2) 16-cell


(3) 24-cell


(4) Hexagonal Square Duoprism


(5) Prismatic Elongated Dodecahedron


(6) Prismatic Rhombic Dodecahedron


(7) Prismatic Truncated Octahedron

EDIT: Based upon the recent answer, an improved question would concern the classification of combinatorial equivalence classes of Voronoi cells of lattices. Have these been classified or are there known classifications which could prove or disprove my conjecture?



Are the primary parallelotopes classified? (equivalently, Voronoi cells of lattices)
Voronoi conjectured that every parallelotope is combinatorially equivalent to a Voronoi cell of a lattice. The conjecture was proved for $d\le 4$ by Delone.

To answer the added question: there are 52 inequivalent Voronoi cells in 4 dimensions. I do not know whether this classification proves or refutes your stated conjecture, but it should not be hard to check.
