What is a "glide rotation" really called?

187 Views Asked by At

There are many webpages explaining what glide reflections are, see, e.g., https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glide_reflection It is defined as a reflection followed by a translation.

My question is: What do you call a rotation (linear, i.e., around the origin) followed by a translation? Could be called a "glide rotation" but this gives very few hits. What is the proper terminology?

Any comments would be appreciated!

Edited My rotation is linear!
