Abstract
Simple methods are described that permit the ready writing of reducible representations for systems described by the point groups Dinfiniteh and Cinfinitev. Examples of applying the methods are given to problems in vibrational and electronic spectroscopy as well as bonding theory.

A Simple Reduction Process for the Normal Vibrational Modes Occurring in Linear Molecules
William McInernyJournal of Chemical Education2005 82 (1), 140A Simple Reduction Process for the Normal Vibrational Modes Occurring in Linear Molecules
William McInernyJournal of Chemical Education2005 82 (1), 140The students in molecular spectroscopy courses are often required to determine the permitted normal vibrations for linear molecules that belong to the groups C∞ν and D∞h. The reducible group representations generated by the use of Cartesian coordinates ...
