Özet

In this article, we, firstly, find that the spheres in the Chinese Checkers space are deltoidal icositetrahedrons. Then we show that the group of isometries of the 3-dimensional space with respect to Chinese Checkers metric is the semi-direct product of deltoidal icositetrahedron group G (D) and T(3), where G (D) is the (Euclidean) symmetry group of the deltoidal icositetrahedron and T (3) is the group of all translations of the 3-dimensional space.
