| Jan 1, 2015 at 20:06 | comment | added | Francois Ziegler | @BenjaminDickman Thanks. I found the Wulff paper here -- I may be wrong but I'm not finding more about the OP's question in it. | |
| Jan 1, 2015 at 19:24 | comment | added | Benjamin Dickman | I had wondered specifically if there was anything of value in foot-note 3 of p. 163: The source is in German (Wulff, 1897) but I could not track down that particular reference... You are right that it (and other sources) are mentioned in Hilton (1903); I had not searched through Hilton for that reference, though it makes sense reading Rogers' acknowledgement at the end of the paper. (In any event: your answer here is very nice!) | |
| Jan 1, 2015 at 17:11 | comment | added | Francois Ziegler | @BenjaminDickman Why? I don't notice anything in Rogers that's not already in the above-quoted Hilton (1903)... | |
| Dec 31, 2014 at 23:32 | comment | added | Benjamin Dickman | You might check: Rogers, A. F. (1926). A mathematical study of crystal symmetry. Proceedings of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences (pp. 161-203). American Academy of Arts and Sciences. (In particular, "Symmetry Operations" beginning on p. 162 and the references contained therein.) | |

| Dec 26, 2014 at 0:27 | comment | added | Humberto José Bortolossi | Thanks Ziegler. And what about euclidean geometry? Indeed, being more precise, I would like to know the first published book or article where symmetries (in Geometry) are defined as transformations. | |
