Abstract
In this study we show that some discussions of finite-deformation single-crystal plasticity are conceptually flawed in their focus on a set referred to as the intermediate configuration. Specifically, we prove that what is usually referred to as the intermediate configuration is not a configuration but instead a vector space that we term the intermediate space. We argue that when applied to single crystals this intermediate space represents the lattice.
