A Coxeter diagram with N nodes, and labels ni,j on edges between nodes i and j, defines an N-dimensional vector space with dot product
ei•ei = 1,
ei•ej = - cos(π/ni,j).
If this dot product is positive-definite (signature ++...++), then the symmetry group is finite, and can be used to describe (Wythoffian) polytopes in N-dimensional Euclidean space, or tilings of (N-1)-dimensional spheric space.
If the dot product is positive-semidefinite with 1 dimension of degeneracy (signature ++...+0), then the symmetry group can be used to describe tilings of (N-1)-dimensional Euclidean space.
If the dot product is indefinite with signature ++...+-, then the symmetry group is hyperbolic.
What about other signatures? One example is o5o4o3o5o5o, which has signature ++++--. This doesn't match any of the previous types. In fact a 2D negative-definite subspace can't exist in a space with signature +++...+-, regardless of the number of '+' signs. So the polytope x5o4o3o5o5o doesn't fit in hyperbolic space of any dimension! At least, not with the expected symmetry.
(Hence the term "ultra-hyperbolic". Apparently Wikipedia calls it "Lorentzian", but I'm not sure it means exactly the same thing.)
