  2. Glide reflection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glide_reflection

    A typical example of glide reflection in everyday life would be the track of footprints left in the sand by a person walking on a beach. Frieze group nr. 6 (glide-reflections, translations and rotations) is generated by a glide reflection and a rotation about a point on the line of reflection. It is isomorphic to a semi-direct product of Z and C 2.

  3. Frieze group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frieze_group

    p2mm: TRHVG (translation, 180° rotation, horizontal line reflection, vertical line reflection, and glide reflection) Formally, a frieze group is a class of infinite discrete symmetry groups of patterns on a strip (infinitely wide rectangle), hence a class of groups of isometries of the plane, or of a strip.

  4. Euclidean plane isometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_plane_isometry

    Glide reflection. Glide reflections, denoted by G c,v,w, where c is a point in the plane, v is a unit vector in R 2, and w is non-null a vector perpendicular to v are a combination of a reflection in the line described by c and v, followed by a translation along w. That is, ,, =,, or in other words,

  5. Point groups in two dimensions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_groups_in_two_dimensions

    For each of the types D 1, D 2, and D 4 the distinction between the 3, 4, and 2 wallpaper groups, respectively, is determined by the translation vector associated with each reflection in the group: since isometries are in the same coset regardless of translational components, a reflection and a glide reflection with the same mirror are in the ...

  6. Rotations and reflections in two dimensions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotations_and_reflections...

    The set of all reflections in lines through the origin and rotations about the origin, together with the operation of composition of reflections and rotations, forms a group. The group has an identity: Rot(0). Every rotation Rot(φ) has an inverse Rot(−φ). Every reflection Ref(θ) is its own inverse. Composition has closure and is ...

  7. Euclidean group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_group

    reflection with respect to a plane, and a translation in that plane, a rotation about an axis perpendicular to the plane, or a reflection with respect to a perpendicular plane; glide reflection with respect to a plane, and a translation in that plane; inversion in a point and any isometry keeping the point fixed

    Thomas says Jupiter will "glide through your intellectual zone until June 9, 2025." "Typically, this brings a much faster pace to life, as you travel more and seek to step outside your comfort ...

  9. Space group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_group

    The latter is called the diamond glide plane as it features in the diamond structure. In 17 space groups, due to the centering of the cell, the glides occur in two perpendicular directions simultaneously, i.e. the same glide plane can be called b or c, a or b, a or c. For example, group Abm2 could be also called Acm2, group Ccca could be called ...
