On isometries of $Bbb{R}^2_{pi dot n}$
On isometries of $Bbb{R}^2_{pi dot n}$
In this work, we introduce a family of distance functions and show that the group of isometries of the plane associated with the induced metrics is the semi-direct product of the Dihedral group $D_{2n}$ and the translation group T (2).
