Have been grouped together by which of the 8 symmetries it belongs to. Dec 9, 2012 - The salient point here is that two different compositions of symmetries can end up being the same thing. One of the original points of investigating these things called groups was to investigate sets of symmetries that were related to one another. Nov 17, 2010 - In physics, space and time are governed by three principles of symmetry: translational, rotational, and time translation symmetry. The lattice has $D_{6}$ symmetry, and three of the elements (vertical reflection $\sigma_v$, horizontal reflection $\sigma_h$, and $\pi/3$ rotation $C_6$) are shown for reference. In essence “You extend the symmetry and when you do this, some profound things happen. Apr 1, 2010 - I encourage you to grab a piece of paper and explore by working on examples. While the purple dots are free to move horizontally and vertically in the plane. May 21, 2008 - In The Symmetries of Things, eminent Princeton mathematician John H. Oct 24, 2005 - Symmetries, you may have heard, play a crucial role in modern physics. White indicates no amplitude, black indicates large amplitude, and the color scale is somewhat logarithmic to make things easier to see.
