Frieze group - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Formally, a frieze group is a class of infinite discrete symmetry groups for patterns on a strip (infinitely wide rectangle), hence a class of groups of isometries of the plane, or of a strip. |
 | | In the case of symmetry groups in the plane, additional parameters are the direction of the translation vector, and, for the frieze groups 2, 3, 5, 6, and 7, the positioning perpendicular to the translation vector. |
 | | A symmetry group in frieze group 1, 3, 4, or 5 is a subgroup of a symmetry group in the last frieze group with the same translational distance. |
