 Fixed point of a finite Euclidean isometry group

A finite group of Euclidean isometries has a common fixed point: average any orbit. Each isometry is an affine map and therefore preserves this finite affine average; applying a group element merely permutes the orbit terms. To see that an isometry is affine, subtract its value at zero and use the polarization identity to show that the resulting map preserves inner products. Images of a standard orthonormal basis then determine a linear orthogonal map.
