Number of Hyper-cube cuts

Here is some handwaving which suggests that the growth rate is faster than polynomial. For any cut of a d-cube, we can pair that with 2^d cuts of a parallel d-cube to get at least 2^d many cuts of a …

For v prime, I don't know. For v even, and d=3, one can take a regular polygonal prism. I can think of toriodal versions for odd composite v, but I am unsure they are vertex transitive. I can go to …
