Abstract

Let Ω be an open connected subset of ℝ3 and let Θ be an immersion from Ω into ℝ3. It is established that the set formed by all rigid displacements of the open set Θ(Ω) is a submanifold of dimension 6 and of class C of the space H1(Ω). It is also shown that the infinitesimal rigid displacements of the same set Θ(Ω) span the tangent space at the origin to this submanifold.
