The lattice [\Lambda(a,b)] with unit cell (a,b) is the set of complex numbers [z = n+m\rho \exp({i\varphi})], [n,m\in{\bb Z}], [\rho\in{\bb R}], where the unit vector a is chosen as the unity along the real axis x and b is the complex number [b = \rho \exp({i\varphi})]. A rotation of angle ϕ around the origin transforms z into [z\exp({i\phi})] and a mirror [m_{\theta}] passing through the origin and oriented along the direction of angle θ transforms z into [\bar{z}\exp({2i\theta})].
