Abstract
It is well-known that cross caps on surfaces in the Euclidean 3-space can be expressed in Bruce-West's normal form, which is a special local coordinate system centered at the singular point. In this paper, we show a certain kind of uniqueness of such a coordinate system. In particular, the functions associated with this coordinate system produce new invariants on cross cap singular points. Using them, we classify the possible symmetries on cross caps.
