  2. Translation (geometry) - Wikipedia

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

    In Euclidean geometry, a translation is a geometric transformation that moves every point of a figure, shape or space by the same distance in a given direction. A translation can also be interpreted as the addition of a constant vector to every point, or as shifting the origin of the coordinate system. In a Euclidean space, any translation is ...

  3. Translation of axes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translation_of_axes

    In mathematics, a translation of axes in two dimensions is a mapping from an xy-Cartesian coordinate system to an x'y'-Cartesian coordinate system in which the x' axis is parallel to the x axis and k units away, and the y' axis is parallel to the y axis and h units away.

  4. Convolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convolution

    It is known, for instance, that every continuous translation invariant continuous linear operator on L 1 is the convolution with a finite Borel measure. More generally, every continuous translation invariant continuous linear operator on L p for 1 ≤ p < ∞ is the convolution with a tempered distribution whose Fourier transform is bounded.

  5. Glide reflection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glide_reflection

    In geometry, a glide reflection or transflection is a geometric transformation that consists of a reflection across a hyperplane and a translation ("glide") in a direction parallel to that hyperplane, combined into a single transformation.

  6. Translational symmetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translational_symmetry

    For translational invariant functions : it is () = (+).The Lebesgue measure is an example for such a function.. In physics and mathematics, continuous translational symmetry is the invariance of a system of equations under any translation (without rotation).

  7. Euclidean plane isometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_plane_isometry

    In geometry, a Euclidean plane isometry is an isometry of the Euclidean plane, or more informally, a way of transforming the plane that preserves geometrical properties such as length. There are four types: translations , rotations , reflections , and glide reflections (see below § Classification ).

  8. Euclidean group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_group

    Glide reflections with translation by the same distance are in the same class. In 3D: Inversions with respect to all points are in the same class. Rotations by the same angle are in the same class. Rotations about an axis combined with translation along that axis are in the same class if the angle is the same and the translation distance is the ...

  9. Shift operator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shift_operator

    In mathematics, and in particular functional analysis, the shift operator, also known as the translation operator, is an operator that takes a function x ↦ f(x) to its translation x ↦ f(x + a). [1] In time series analysis, the shift operator is called the lag operator.
