ID: period-group-of-a-function

Include zero when forming this set, even though a period of a function is normally required to be nonzero. For , is a subgroup of the additive group of the real numbers: composing two preserving shifts adds them, and reversing a preserving shift negates it. A constant function has period group . A nonconstant continuous real-valued function that is periodic has period group , where is its fundamental period.
