  2. Symmetry in mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetry_in_mathematics

    Symmetry occurs not only in geometry, but also in other branches of mathematics. Symmetry is a type of invariance: the property that a mathematical object remains unchanged under a set of operations or transformations. [1] Given a structured object X of any sort, a symmetry is a mapping of the object

  3. Symmetry (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetry_(geometry)

    A drawing of a butterfly with bilateral symmetry, with left and right sides as mirror images of each other.. In geometry, an object has symmetry if there is an operation or transformation (such as translation, scaling, rotation or reflection) that maps the figure/object onto itself (i.e., the object has an invariance under the transform). [1]

  4. Rotational symmetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotational_symmetry

    Rotational symmetry of order n, also called n-fold rotational symmetry, or discrete rotational symmetry of the n th order, with respect to a particular point (in 2D) or axis (in 3D) means that rotation by an angle of ⁠ ⁠ (180°, 120°, 90°, 72°, 60°, 51 3 ⁄ 7 °, etc.) does not change the object. A "1-fold" symmetry is no symmetry (all ...

  5. Symmetry operation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetry_operation

    In mathematics, a symmetry operation is a geometric transformation of an object that leaves the object looking the same after it has been carried out. For example, a 1 ⁄ 3 turn rotation of a regular triangle about its center, a reflection of a square across its diagonal, a translation of the Euclidean plane, or a point reflection of a sphere through its center are all symmetry operations.

  6. List of planar symmetry groups - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_planar_symmetry_groups

    This article summarizes the classes of discrete symmetry groups of the Euclidean plane. The symmetry groups are named here by three naming schemes: International notation, orbifold notation, and Coxeter notation. There are three kinds of symmetry groups of the plane: 2 families of rosette groups – 2D point groups; 7 frieze groups – 2D line ...

  7. Reflection symmetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflection_symmetry

    In mathematics, reflection symmetry, line symmetry, mirror symmetry, or mirror-image symmetry is symmetry with respect to a reflection. That is, a figure which does not change upon undergoing a reflection has reflectional symmetry. In 2-dimensional space, there is a line/axis of symmetry, in 3-dimensional space, there is a plane of symmetry
