Four sets of necessary and sufficient conditions are obtained for the first-order rigidity of a periodic bond-node framework \C in R^d which is of crystallographic type. In particular, an extremal rank characterisation is obtained which incorporates a multi-variable matrix-valued transfer function \Psi_\C(z) defined on the product space C^d_* = (C\{0})^d... In general the first-order flex space is shown to be the closed linear span of polynomially weighted geometric velocity fields whose geometric multi-factors in C^d_* lie in a finite set. Paradoxically, first-order rigid crystal frameworks may possess nontrivial nondifferentiable continuous motions. The examples given are associated with aperiodic displacive phase transitions between periodic states. (read more)
