Abstract

The population (frequency of appearance) of group-subgroup symmetry descents (species) and of different combinations of ferroelastic and ferroelectric properties observed in crystals with a single phase transition have been derived from the updated Tomaszewski's database of structural phase transitions [1, 2]. A striking dominance of the full ferroelastic–non-ferroelectric phases is correlated with the pronounced preponderance of holohedral symmetries in inorganic crystals.
