Dear Everyone:
I am studying a rigid body motion in n-dimensional Euclidean space.
My focus is on rigid bodies which merely consist of some m points in n-dim space.
In 3-dim spaces, only translations and rotations exist for rigid body motion.
May I ask:
I want to know the types of movements of rigid body in n-dim spaces.
Are translations and rotations all I need to consider? Or Do there any other types of movements(transformations) exist?
In n-dim spaces, if translations and rotations are all I need to consider,
what is the general formulae for rotations in n-dim ?
Also, I will really appreciate if you could recommend me good websites or books etc to study such topics.
Thank you and have a nice day, all of you
