    Someone might have said it already, but if not I will. Technically, the 0x0x0 has 1 permutation, as nothingness in multiplication is characterised by 1 (compared to 0 in additions). An example is x^0 = (arguably even for 0^0), another is 0! = 1. Nothingness is always in the solved state

      The only reason it looks so weird, is because the only way to display the higher dimension cuben is beacause you have to make one side invisible, because otherwise you wouldnt be able to see the other ones, and the invisible side changes with every turn in the higher dimensions

      You can create a Rubik's Cube in any number of dimensions using math. And there are some computer programs that let us render and play with them. So while they don't exist in real life, there's still enough of a thing to be interesting, and get a permutations result from

    Some thoughts about the comments:
    1. "Actually 0! = 1, so a 0x0x0 has 1 permutation"
    I get the arguments for why a 0x0x0 would have 1 permutation. Because 0! or 0^0 = 1, because there's only 1 way to arrange 0 things. But if you use the mathematical formula to find the number of permutations for any nxnxn, you get a divide by 0 error. So really It should actually maybe be *Undefined*?
    2. "How does the 3x3x3 have more permutations than a 3x3x4?"
    The 3x3x4 has 4 sides that are restricted to ONLY 180 degree turns. This means that all the edges and corners are ALWAYS oriented, which reduces the amount of permutations by a lot.
    3. Also yes, I did mess up the scientific notation for 3x3x3, it was a copy paste error from the previous puzzle, I am sorry 😭

    If each of these was it's own universe, with it's own 10^80 atoms, it would still only have a googolth of a googolth the atoms.
    it would have to have about 1100 nested universes to get the amount of permutations that that monstrosity has.

    I really love this overview and links you provided, thank you -- but I think you may have a couple of mistakes here. the few I noticed are that you took a domino cube *with pictures* number from one of the sources, but that's higher than a regular domino, that you illustrated the entry with, as center orientations are relevant -- its like on a supercube. From one of your sources:
    "There are 8 corners and 8 edges, giving a maximum of 8!·8! positions. This limit is not reached because the orientation of the puzzle does not matter. There are 4 equivalent ways to orient the puzzle with a white centre on top, so this leaves 8!·8!/4 = 406,425,600 distinct positions.
    If the centre orientation is visible, then there seem to be 4·4 possible orientations of the two centres. There is a parity constraint however, as the parity of the number of quarter turns of the centres must be equal to the parity of the corner permutation. This means that the centre orientations only increase the number of positions by a factor of 8, giving 8!·8!·8/4 = 3,251,404,800 distinct positions."
    The second one that seems half-wrong is the 3x3x3 . The full number is right, but you must have accidentally copy-pasted the previous entry, 3x3x4 for that number in scientific notation; it says just 4.1 x 10^16 yet the number above is clearly the correct and much greater value of 4.3 x 10^19. Apologies for repeating this, I've seen others have notified you of this one -- after already writing this.
    Also I also can't find the 8,617,338,912,961,658,880,000 for square 1 in your stated sources. It describes a couple of ways of counting, but as far as I can gather even the largest number it gives is the much smaller 62,768,369,664,000 (and quotes even smaller ones in the table, not that -- so I guess it doesn't think that's the right count either). soo at best just around 1e13 to 1e14, and not on the order of almost 1e22 as stated.

      the 334 has an axis that's restricted to 180 degree turns. So basically the corners and edges are always oriented, unlike a 333 which has edge orientation and corner orientation. Even though it has an extra layer, the piece orientations make it much smaller number of permutations

    I kept thinking about it, and I think I've come to the conclusion that the 0x0x0 has an indeterminate number of permutations. Counting the "permutations" of twisty puzzles is just a tiny bit misleading, because it technically includes both the permutations and the orientations of the pieces
    For example, a 2x2x2 has 7! permutations of its pieces (assuming one is stationary), multiplied by 3^6 orientations (still assuming one stationary piece, and dividing out the orientation of the last corner which is forced by the others) equaling 3674160 total permutations.
    If we apply this logic to the 0x0x0, which has 0 pieces, each with 0 possible positions, and 0 possible orientations, we find that the total permutations would equal the number of permutations of the pieces (0!) multiplied by the number of orientations (0^0) This yields the result of 0!*0^0 = 0^0, which is indeterminate.
    I guess it kinda makes sense for the number of permutations for a puzzle that doesn't even exist ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
