Write a proper Euclidean motion of Euclidean three-space as , where . ThenBecause preserves norms, dot products, and cross products, the formulasshow directly that curvature and torsion are unchanged by .
For the shifted curve , every derivative at equals the corresponding derivative of at . ConsequentlyBoth are therefore pointwise Euclidean invariants in the stated sense.
