- p111 Frieze Patternassociated_withFirst of seven frieze types; has only translation symmetry, no rotations, reflections, or glide-reflections.
- Isometry (Distance-Preserving Transformation)associated_withFundamental mathematical concept; four types of isometries (translation, rotation, reflection, glide-reflection) form the basis of frieze pattern classification.
