COMMENTS

The morphism is based on the adjacencies between the 12 vertices and the two hexagonal face-centers of a hexagonal prism (see illustration):

phi(1) = {2, 6, 7, 13};

phi(2) = {1, 3, 8, 13};

phi(3) = {2, 4, 9, 13};

phi(4) = {3, 5, 10, 13};

phi(5) = {4, 6, 11, 13};

phi(6) = {1, 5, 12, 13};

phi(7) = {1, 8, 12, 14};

phi(8) = {2, 7, 9, 14};

phi(9) = {3, 8, 10, 14};

phi(10) = {4, 9, 11, 14};

phi(11) = {5, 10, 12, 14};

phi(12) = {6, 7, 11, 14};

phi(13) = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 14};

phi(14) = {7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13}.

Edited by N. J. A. Sloane, Jan 24 2012 (But are 4 iterations enough to get the initial terms correctly? I would be happier if the Mma code ended with p[6] rather than p[4].)
