{abstract}
\nIt is widely known that the E8 polytope can be folded into two Golden Ratio (\u03a6) scaled copies of the 4 dimensional (4D) 120 vertex 720 edge H4 600-cell. While folding an 8D object into a 4D one is done by applying the dot product of each vertex to a 4×8 folding matrix, we use an 8×8 rotation matrix to produce four 4D copies of H4 600-cells, with the original two left side scaled 4D copies related to the two right side 4D copies in a very specific way. This paper will describe and visualize in detail the specific symmetry relationships which emerge from that rotation of E8 and the emergent fourfold copies of H4. It will also introduce a projection basis using the Icosahedron found within the 8×8 rotation matrix. It will complete the detail for constructing E8 from the 3D Platonic solids, Icosians, and the 4D H4 600-cell. Eight pairs of \u03a6 scaled concentric Platonic solids are identified directly using the sorted and grouped 3D projected vertex norms present within E8. Finally, we will show the relationship of the Beordijk-Coxeter Tetrahelix emerging from the Petrie projection’s concentric rings of 30 vertices of the H4 600-cells.<\/p>\n

\nAPPENDIX A: LIST OF E8 AND ITS ROTATED H4 AND H4\u03a6 VERTICES
\nThis table splits the E8 and its rotated H4 vertices into L\/R 4D elements.<\/p>\n

1. Table structure
\nThe first column is an SRE E8 vertex index number derived from sorting the E8 vertices by their position based on the 256=2^8 binary pattern from the 9th row of the Pascal triangle (1, 8, 28, 56, 70, 56, 28, 8, 1) and its associated Cl8 Clifford Algebra. This construction is described in more detail in [3]. The odd groups (1,3,5,7,9) with (1,26,70,26,1) elements (respectively) are the 128 1\/2 integer vertices. The even groups (2,4,6,8) with (8,56,56,8) elements (respectively) are the 112 integer vertices along with the 16 excluded 8 generator (and 8 anti-generator) vertices (2-9 and 248-255) with permutations of (1; 0; 0; 0; 0; 0; 0; 0) (a.k.a. the 8-Orthoplex), such that they indicate the basis vectors used for projecting the polytope.<\/p>\n

Only the first half of the 240 vertices is shown, since the last half is simply the reverse order negation of the vertices
\nin the first half (e.g. the E8 vertex n=10 has as its’ negation 257-n=247). The middle column labeled L<->R indicates the vertex reference number that contains the same L as the R (and equivalently, the same R as the L, interestingly enough).<\/p>\n

2. Table color coding
\nThe E8 L\/R columns’ green color-coded elements indicate that the 4D vertex rotates into the smaller H4 600-cell.
\nConversely, the E8 L\/R columns’ black color-coded elements indicate the 4D vertex rotates into the larger H4\u03a6
\n600-cell.<\/p>\n

The H4 L\/R columns’ red color-coded rows are 24-cell elements that always self-reference and are always members of the scaled up 600-cell H4\u03a6. The H4 L\/R columns’ orange color-coded rows are 24-cell elements that always reference the negated elements in the range of 129-256 and are always members of the smaller 600-cell H4.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
