Chemists are used to the operational definition of symmetry, which crystallographers introduced long before the advent of quantum mechanics. The ball-and-stick
Concise, self-contained introduction to group theory and its applications to chemical problems. Symmetry, matrices, molecular vibrations, transition metal chemi
As the structure and behavior of molecules and crystals depend on their different symmetries, group theory becomes an essential tool in many important areas of
This graduate-level text develops the aspects of group theory most relevant to physics and chemistry (such as the theory of representations) and illustrates the
