| Aug 15, 2019 at 15:15 | comment | added | lxiangyun93 | @ThomasFritsch Yes, do you by chance know any physical quantities that are spinors or quaternions? | |
| Aug 14, 2019 at 14:00 | comment | added | Michael Seifert | In group theory language, I think you want a geometric object $x$ for which the stabilizer subgroup of $SO(3)$ is trivial. I don't know off the top of my head whether such a thing exists, but I figured I'd throw this out as a comment in case anyone else does. | |
