tetragonal C is tetragonal P, and here is the cell change
tetragonal C is tetragonal P, and here is the cell change. The change of cell that carries the C-centred tetragonal description onto the P description of tetragonal: turn the axes through 45° and shrink by √2: the centred cell's own primitive cell is square. The new cell vectors, written in the old basis, are a′ = (1/2, 1/2, 0), b′ = (-1/2, 1/2, 0) and c′ = (0, 0, 1). All three conditions hold, which is what makes this a duplicate rather than a fifteenth lattice.

2 essays call cell-change. The drawing above is what it returns with no arguments at all; every call below passes it something, because a placement that passes nothing draws whichever member of the family the generator happens to default to rather than the one its essay argues about. Every one of this site's 393 essays names its parameters at the call site, which the standard pass of 2026-08-09 established and param-floor holds.
