101symmetry plane — Crystall. See reflection plane. [1875 80] …

103Rotational symmetry — Generally speaking, an object with rotational symmetry is an object that looks the same after a certain amount of rotation. An object may have more than one rotational symmetry; for instance, if reflections or turning it over are not counted, the …
104Spontaneous symmetry breaking — Quantum field theory (Feynman diagram) …
105Molecular symmetry — in chemistry describes the symmetry present in molecules and the classification of molecules according to their symmetry. Molecular symmetry is a fundamental concept in chemistry, as it can predict or explain many of a molecule s chemical… …
106One-dimensional symmetry group — A one dimensional symmetry group is a mathematical group that describes symmetries in one dimension (1D). A pattern in 1D can be represented as a function f(x) for, say, the color at position x. The 1D isometries map x to x + a and to a − x.… …
107Octahedral symmetry — The cube is the most common shape with octahedral symmetry A regular octahedron has 24 rotational (or orientation preserving) symmetries, and a symmetry order of 48 including transformations that combine a reflection and a rotation. A cube has… …
108Mirror symmetry (string theory) — In physics and mathematics, mirror symmetry is a relation that can exist between two Calabi Yau manifolds. It happens, usually for two such six dimensional manifolds, that the shapes may look very different geometrically, but nevertheless they… …
109Event symmetry — The term Event symmetry describes invariance principles that have been used in some discrete approaches to quantum gravity where the diffeomorphism invariance of general relativity can be extended to a covariance under any permutation of… …
110Reflection symmetry — Reflection symmetry, line symmetry, mirror symmetry, mirror image symmetry, or bilateral symmetry is symmetry with respect to reflection.In 2D there is an axis of symmetry, in 3D a plane of symmetry. An object or figure which is indistinguishable …
