Rotational symmetry is one of the most important structural principles in machine learning on 3D data. In applications ranging from physics and materials science to 3D computer vision, predictions should not depend on an arbitrary choice of coordinate frame. Rotational equivariance captures this requirement mathematically by enforcing that a rotation of the input induces a corresponding transformation of the model output. This tutorial provides a comprehensive introduction to rotational equivariance, starting from the physical and geometric intuition behind coordinate independence and building
