The Archimedean graphs are those graphs which form the skeletons of the Archimedean solids. The Archimedean solids comprise 13 convex polyhedra whose faces are regular polygons and whose vertices are all symmetric to each other, but which are not Platonic solids (polyhedra whose faces are identical). They were first enumerated by Archimedes.
The new command IsArchimedeanGraph tests whether a given graph is an Archimedean graph.
The following new commands generate each of the Archimedean graphs.
