A symmetry element (of a given crystal structure or object) is defined as a concept with a double meaning, namely the combination of a geometric element with the set of symmetry operations having this geometric element in common (termed its element set). Together with the identity and the translations, for which a geometric element is not defined, the element sets cover all symmetry operations.
