  2. List of character tables for chemically important 3D point groups

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_character_tables...

    The body of the tables contain the characters in the respective irreducible representations for each respective symmetry operation, or set of symmetry operations. The symbol i used in the body of the table denotes the imaginary unit: i 2 = −1. Used in a column heading, it denotes the operation of inversion.

  3. Character table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Character_table

    The irreducible complex characters of a finite group form a character table which encodes much useful information about the group G in a concise form. Each row is labelled by an irreducible character and the entries in the row are the values of that character on any representative of the respective conjugacy class of G (because characters are class functions).

  4. Dihedral group of order 6 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dihedral_group_of_order_6

    Up to isomorphism, this group has three irreducible complex unitary representations, which we will call (the trivial representation), and , where the subscript indicates the dimension. By its definition as a permutation group over the set with three elements, the group has a representation on C 3 {\displaystyle \mathbb {C} ^{3}} by permuting ...

  5. Irreducible representation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irreducible_representation

    Every finite-dimensional unitary representation on a Hilbert space is the direct sum of irreducible representations. Irreducible representations are always indecomposable (i.e. cannot be decomposed further into a direct sum of representations), but the converse may not hold, e.g. the two-dimensional representation of the real numbers acting by ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Character_theory

    A character χ ρ is called irreducible or simple if ρ is an irreducible representation. The degree of the character χ is the dimension of ρ; in characteristic zero this is equal to the value χ(1). A character of degree 1 is called linear. When G is finite and F has characteristic zero, the kernel of the character χ ρ is the normal subgroup:

  7. Representation theory of finite groups - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representation_theory_of...

    The representation is called an irreducible representation, if these two are the only subrepresentations. Some authors also call these representations simple, given that they are precisely the simple modules over the group algebra []. Schur's lemma puts a strong constraint on maps between irreducible representations.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_symmetry

    The irreducible representation for the C-O stretching vibration is A 1g + E g + T 1u. Of these, only T 1u is IR active. B 2 H 6 has D 2h molecular symmetry. The terminal B-H stretching vibrations which are active in IR are B 2u and B 3u. Diborane. Fac-Mo(CO) 3 (CH 3 CH 2 CN) 3, has C 3v geometry. The irreducible representation for the C-O ...
