Non-Euclidean crystallographic group
ID: non-euclidean-crystallographic-group
A **non-Euclidean crystallographic group** refers to a symmetry group that arises in the study of lattices and patterns in geometries that are not based on Euclidean space. Crystallographic groups describe how a pattern can be repeated in space while maintaining certain symmetries, including rotations, translations, and reflections. In Euclidean geometry, the classifications of crystallographic groups are based on the 17 two-dimensional plane groups and the 230 three-dimensional space groups.
