On each half-space the deformation is affine. Continuity on the separating plane makes the two affine constants equal and gives for every tangent vector . Decomposing any into its tangential part and givesThis is the Hadamard jump condition. Since , the matrix determinant lemma givesBoth determinants are positive, hence .
Write , , and . The two proposed angles have and , and . Therefore the displayed rotations lie in . Direct multiplication givesThis is a rank-one connection for each sign. With a unit normal one may choose and jump vector . The two rotations are distinct because ; the permitted at-most-two result therefore proves these are all solutions. Flipping both and changes no connection.
It remains to test the material plane. Because , the affine constants vanish. Let , so the plane is spanned by and . Both deformation gradients send to . If the plane is not the twin plane, it cuts the two half-spaces; its two image halves are coplanar exactly when the in-plane vectors and are parallel. Put and in their two-dimensional sections. ThenIts prefactor is nonzero, so coplanarity requires , precisely . Conversely, on that twin plane , so the two affine maps agree and its image is a plane. Thus . All other allowed planes acquire a kink along their intersection with the twin. This is the planarity test across a cubic-to-tetragonal twin.
