Abstract
The complete classification of (primitive, generic) parallelohedra in a given dimension is a challenging computational task. Nearly 50 years have passed since the classification for the last dimension, n = 5, was completed. One application of such a classification is in solving the lattice sphere covering problem for the corresponding dimension. The paper by Dutour Sikirić & van Woerden [Acta Cryst. (2025), A81, https://doi.org/10.1107/S2053273324010143] marks a milestone in the classification effort for dimension n = 6. It provides a complete classification of all primitive iso-edge domains; here primitive parallelohedra are identified based on their facet vectors.
