Wick symmetry

Wicks and waves, patterns which are periodic in time and in one dimension of space but not both, are subject to symmetries in some sense, much like finite patterns.
Space symmetries
It is not known if the following list is comprehensive.
C1
The wick has no symmetry; it is only periodic in space and time.
| Asymmetric wick |
C2
There are points on the wick with 180 degree rotational symmetry. There are seven possibilities:
- Two points of C2_1 symmetry
- One point of C2_1 symmetry, one point of C2_2 symmetry
- One point of C2_1 symmetry, one point of C2_4 symmetry
- Two points of C2_2 symmetry, parallel
- Two points of C2_2 symmetry, perpendicular
- Two points of C2_4 symmetry
- One point of C2_4 symmetry, one point of C2_2 symmetry
| Two C2_1 points |
| C2_1 and C2_2 |
| C2_1 and C2_4 |
| Two C2_2 points, parallel |
| Two C2_2 points, perpendicular |
| C2_2 and C2_4 |
| Two C2_4 points |
D2
The wick is mirror symmetric across two parallel lines, perpendicular to the direction of periodicity. There are four possibilities:
