Two-dimensional space groups with sevenfold symmetry

Author(s):

Fivefold and sevenfold symmetry operations are, of course, incompatible with repetition by a lattice but, with the appearance of structures involving curved sheets, they and other non-crystallographic operations must now be taken into consideration as possibilities of non-Euclidean crystallography develop. Here are described the symmetry groups which might be called 732 and 73m and which may be found in two-dimensional manifolds.

A method of building up the generators of 775 (3+1)-dimensional superspace groups is proposed. The generators are based on the conventional space-group generators selected by Wondratschek and applied in theInternational Tables for Crystallography(1995, Vol. A). By the method, the generation of (3+1) space groups is found to be easier, the description of symmetry operations is closer to that used for the conventional space groups, and ambiguities in the (3+1) group notation are avoided.

The construction of the irreducible representations of space groups by the little-group method making use of their solvability property is discussed. As an example the two-dimensional space group p4g is considered and all the allowable representations for the groups Gk’s of typical wave vectors k of the group pig are obtained.
