where $T \cong \mathbb{Z}^2$ is the translation subgroup, and $K$ is the point group}$), which is a finite subgroup of the orthogonal group $O(2)$ that fixes the origin (the center of the fundamental domain). The order of $K$, denoted $|K|$, dictates the rotational and reflectional symmetries present in the pattern beyond simple translation.
The seventeen wallpaper groups arise from the combination of the seven possible point groups ($K$) and the two possible lattice structures (primitive and [ce… -
Wallpaper Groups
Linked via "centered"
The seventeen groups are distinguished by the specific combination of their point group and the relationship between the basis vectors of the translation lattice $T$. This relationship is often quantified by the axial ratio $\rho = |\mathbf{t}2| / |\mathbf{t}1|$ and the angle $\gamma$ between $\mathbf{t}1$ and $\mathbf{t}2$. The final classification into 17 distinct abstract groups ($p1, p2, p3, \dots, p4m, p6m$) arises from determining which symmetry operations (rotations, reflections, or glide reflections) are compatible with the translational structure [5]…
