60.7 TranslationsCrystGroup

TranslationsCrystGroup( G )

determines a basis of the translation lattice of G, binds it to G.translations, and returns it. Note that this translation lattice is always invariant under the point group P of G. If G.translations is not yet present, a finite presentation of P needs to be determined. A basis of the translation lattice can also be added by the user, with AddTranslationsCrystGroup (see AddTranslationsCrystGroup).

Warning: The component G.translations must never be set by hand. The functions TranslationsCrystGroup and AddTranslationsCrystGroups have important (and wanted) side effects.
