2. Lattice constant - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lattice_constant

   A simple cubic crystal has only one lattice constant, the distance between atoms, but in general lattices in three dimensions have six lattice constants: the lengths a, b, and c of the three cell edges meeting at a vertex, and the angles α, β, and γ between those edges. The crystal lattice parameters a, b, and c have the

3. Hermite constant - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hermite_constant

   In mathematics, the Hermite constant, named after Charles Hermite, determines how long a shortest element of a lattice in Euclidean space can be. The constant γ n for integers n > 0 is defined as follows. For a lattice L in Euclidean space R n with unit covolume, i.e. vol(R n /L) = 1, let λ 1 (L) denote the least length of a nonzero element of L.

4. Metric lattice - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metric_lattice

   Example valuation function on the cube lattice which makes it a metric lattice. In the mathematical study of order , a metric lattice L is a lattice that admits a positive valuation : a function v ∈ L → ℝ satisfying, for any a , b ∈ L , [ 1 ] v ( a ) + v ( b ) = v ( a ∧ b ) + v ( a ∨ b ) {\displaystyle v(a)+v(b)=v(a\wedge b)+v(a\vee ...

5. Fractional coordinates - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fractional_coordinates

   A lattice in which the conventional basis is primitive is called a primitive lattice, while a lattice with a non-primitive conventional basis is called a centered lattice. The choice of an origin and a basis implies the choice of a unit cell which can further be used to describe a crystal pattern.

6. Lattice (order) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lattice_(order)

   A lattice is an abstract structure studied in the mathematical subdisciplines of order theory and abstract algebra.It consists of a partially ordered set in which every pair of elements has a unique supremum (also called a least upper bound or join) and a unique infimum (also called a greatest lower bound or meet).

7. Fundamental pair of periods - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundamental_pair_of_periods

   In mathematics, a fundamental pair of periods is an ordered pair of complex numbers that defines a lattice in the complex plane. This type of lattice is the underlying object with which elliptic functions and modular forms are defined. Fundamental parallelogram defined by a pair of vectors in the complex plane.
