Scott R. Shannon, Illustration for a(3) = 72. This shows the 4-faced cells in the 3D cube dissection. The 72 pieces have been moved away from the origin a distance proportional to the average distance of their vertices from the origin.
Scott R. Shannon, Illustration for a(4) = 24. This shows the 5-faced cells in the 3D cube dissection. The 24 pieces have been moved away from the origin a distance proportional to the average distance of their vertices from the origin. These polyhedra form a perfect octahedron inside the original cube with its points touching the cube's inner surface.
EXAMPLE
The two diagonals of a square cut it into four triangular pieces, so T(2,3) = 4.
