Talk:Translation relation

I've never seen the word "relation" or "relationship" used in this way before. Usually in mathematics a "relation" is something like "<" or "=" or any of a number of other things, usually amounting to a verb in a mathematical proposition. We already have an article titled shift operator. Should this get merged and redirected? Michael Hardy (talk) 03:12, 30 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Agree with redirect. The only example I can find of this usage of "translation relation" to mean a transformation is this MathWorld page and the correspopnding CRC entry that is referenced in the article. Gandalf61 (talk) 08:30, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
