Horoball packings related to hyperbolic $24$ cell

In this paper we study the horoball packings related to the hyperbolic 24 cell in the extended hyperbolic space $\overline{\mathbf{H}}^4$ where we allow {\it horoballs in different types} centered at the various vertices of the 24 cell. We determine, introducing the notion of the generalized polyhedral density function, the locally densest horoball packing arrangement and its density with respect to the above regular tiling. The maximal density is $\approx 0.71645$ which is equal to the known greatest ball packing density in hyperbolic 4-space given in \cite{KSz14}.
