List Of Planar Symmetry Groups
This article summarizes the classes of discrete planar symmetry groups. The symmetry groups are named here by three naming schemes: International notation, orbifold notation, and Coxeter notation.
There are three kinds of symmetry groups of the plane:
- 2 rosette groups – 2D point groups
- 7 frieze groups – 2D line groups
- 17 wallpaper groups – 2D space groups.

“Feminism is an entire world view or gestalt, not just a laundry list of women’s issues.”
—Charlotte Bunch (b. 1944)
“My list of things I never pictured myself saying when I pictured myself as a parent has grown over the years.”

“What makes a regiment of soldiers a more noble object of view than the same mass of mob? Their arms, their dresses, their banners, and the art and artificial symmetry of their position and movements.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
“As in political revolutions, so in paradigm choice—there is no standard higher than the assent of the relevant community. To discover how scientific revolutions are effected, we shall therefore have to examine not only the impact of nature and of logic, but also the techniques of persuasive argumentation effective within the quite special groups that constitute the community of scientists.”
—Thomas S. Kuhn (b. 1922)
