Abstract
In the literature, there is an ambiguity in defining the relationship between trigonal and cubic symmetry classes of an elasticity tensor. We discuss the issue by examining the eigensystems and symmetry groups of trigonal and cubic tensors. Additionally, we present numerical examples indicating that the sole verification of the eigenvalues can lead to confusion in the identification of the elastic symmetry.
