Description
Summary:A crystallographic group is a discrete subgroup of the set of isometries of Euclidean space where the quotient space is compact. A torsion free crystallographic group, or also known as a Bieberbach group has the symmetry structure that will reveal its algebraic properties. One of the algebraic properties is its nonabelian tensor square. The nonabelian tensor square is a special case of the nonabelian tensor product where the product is defined if the two groups act on each other in a compatible way and their action is taken to be conjugation. Meanwhile, Bieberbach group with quaternion point group of order eight is a polycyclic group. In this paper, by using the polycyclic method, the computation of the nonabelian tensor square of this group will be shown.
