In mathematics, an isometry is a distance-preserving map between metric spaces.

Any reflection, translation and rotation is a global isometry on Euclidean spaces.
From the en.wikipedia.org
They are called isometric if there exists a bijective isometry between them.
From the en.wikipedia.org
If it were, then it would be a local isometry and would preserve Gaussian curvature.
From the en.wikipedia.org
In a sense, there is therefore only one Apollonian gasket, up to isometry.

It associates a partially defined isometry to any symmetric densely-defined operator.

  • In the study of Riemannian geometry in mathematics, a local isometry from one (pseudo)Riemannian manifold to another is a map which pulls back the metric tensor on the second manifold to the metric tensor on the first. ...
  • (Isometer) Isometre is a music theory term describing the use of pulse without regular meter. See also: homorhythm. The music is nowadays only used in the psalmsongs of the Orthodox Reformed Churches in the Netherlands, based on the rhythm made by Petrus Datheen (16th century).
  • (Isometric) where the rhythm in each part exactly matches that of others
