    How Do You Use Burnside’s Lemma for Dihedral Group (3) Colorings?

    Found a trickier one =\ We colour the vertices of a regular hexagon with two different colours. We do not distinguish colourings if they can be obtained from each other by rotations or reflections. Use Burnside's Lemma to count the colourings. So |G|=2^6=64 Any help on how I go about...

    How Do You Use Burnside’s Lemma for Dihedral Group (3) Colorings?

    Do you mean |X/G|=\frac{1}{6}(3^3+3.3^2+2.3) As there are 3 reflections? Thanks for this its helped a lot :)

    How Do You Use Burnside’s Lemma for Dihedral Group (3) Colorings?

    Struggling to apply Burnside's Lemma to an example for the Dihedral group (3) i.e We colour the vertices of an equilateral triangle with three colours: red, blue, green. We do not distinguish colourings if they can be obtained from each other by rotations or reflections. Use Burnside’s...
