In these lectures the relations between symmetries, Lie algebras, Killing vectors and Noether's theorem are reviewed. A generalisation of the basic ideas to include velocitydependent co-ordinate transformations naturally leads to the concept of Killing tensors. Via their Poisson brackets these tenso

Locally symmetric K&EB manifolds may be ChOrDcterized a8 almost Hmwrian manifolds with symplectic or holomorphic local geodeaic symmetries. We extend the notion of a local geodesic symmetry and in particular, give a similar chmcterizntion of all Rrm.umiian locally s-regular manifolds with an s-struc
A comprehensive cognitive method for dealing with shapes and their formal organisation in visual art is derived from the model of movement which finds its expression in Eshkol-Wachman Movement Notation. In this application, shapes are conceived as being swept out by movements which are analysed and
## Abstract We analyze in this article the degree to which different groups of atoms retain local symmetries when assembled in a molecule. This study is carried out by applying continuous symmetry measures to several families of mixed sandwiches, a variety of pianoβstool molecules, and several orga
