  2. Naikan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naikan

    Naikan (Japanese: 内観, lit. ' introspection ') is a structured method of self-reflection developed by Yoshimoto Ishin (1916–1988) in the 1940s. [1] The practice is based around asking oneself three questions about a person in one's life: [2]

    The translations here arise from the glide reflections, so this group is generated by a glide reflection and either a rotation or a vertical reflection. p11m [∞ +,2] C ∞h Z ∞ ×Dih 1 ∞* jump (THG) Translations, Horizontal reflections, Glide reflections: This group is generated by a translation and the reflection in the horizontal axis.

  4. Skopos theory - Wikipedia

    The theory first appeared in an article published by linguist Hans Josef Vermeer in the German Journal Lebende Sprachen, 1978. [2]As a realisation of James Holmes’ map of Translation Studies (1972), [3] [4] skopos theory is the core of the four approaches of German functionalist translation theory [5] that emerged around the late twentieth century.

  5. Euclidean group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_group

    The translations by a given distance in any direction form a conjugacy class; the translation group is the union of those for all distances. In 1D, all reflections are in the same class. In 2D, rotations by the same angle in either direction are in the same class. Glide reflections with translation by the same distance are in the same class. In 3D:

  6. Euclidean plane isometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_plane_isometry

    Three mirrors. If they are all parallel, the effect is the same as a single mirror (slide a pair to cancel the third). Otherwise we can find an equivalent arrangement where two are parallel and the third is perpendicular to them. The effect is a reflection combined with a translation parallel to the mirror. No points are left fixed.

  7. Conjugation of isometries in Euclidean space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugation_of_isometries...

    the conjugation of a translation by a reflection is a translation by a reflected translation vector; Thus the conjugacy class within the Euclidean group E(n) of a translation is the set of all translations by the same distance. The smallest subgroup of the Euclidean group containing all translations by a given distance is the set of all ...

  8. Rigid transformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rigid_transformation

    (A reflection would not preserve handedness; for instance, it would transform a left hand into a right hand.) To avoid ambiguity, a transformation that preserves handedness is known as a rigid motion, a Euclidean motion, or a proper rigid transformation. In dimension two, a rigid motion is either a translation or a rotation.
