3. Direct products • In this chapter we will learn how to find the symmetry of a product of two or more functions. This is extraordinarily important! Recall those integrals we used before: • From the C2v character table, we know that the function x transforms like B1 whereas the function y transforms like B2 . Then how does the function xy transform? 3.1 Introduction • This is already given in the table. The function xy transforms like A2 . • How can we actually work this out? 𝑺𝒊𝒋 = ψ𝒊 ∗ψ𝒋𝒅𝝉 𝜷 = sa𝑯 sbdτ

3.1 Direct products introduction • Use the function xy as a basis to form the corresponding representation of C2v, which will just be a set of numbers, i.e., these numbers are the characters. xy Ex = (+1)x, Ey =(+1)y; E(xy) = (+1)xy; C2 zx = (-1)x, C2 zy = (-1)y; C2 zxy = (+1)xy; xzx = (+1)x , xzy = (-1)y, xzxy =(-1)xy, yzx = (-1)x , yzy = (+1)y, yzxy = (-1)xy, y x (1,-1,1,-1) B1 (1,-1,-1,1) B2 (1,1,-1,-1) A2 xy transforms like A2
: The characters for xy are simply found by multiplying together the characters for the IR B, whichis how x transforms, and for the IR B,, which is how y transforms, operation by operation:(1, -1, 1, -1)@(1, -1, -1, 1) = (1 × 1, -1 × -1, 1 × -1, -1 × 1)=(1,1, -1, -1)Bi (x)B2 (y)B1@B2=A2Thiskind ofmultiplicationis calledthedirectproduct:B,B,=A,.Totakeanotherexample,ifwewantedtoknowhowxztransforms:(1, -1, 1, -1)@(1, 1, 1, 1) = (1 × 1, -1 × 1, 1 × 1, -1 × 1) = (1, -1, 1, -1)BIAI=BIBi (x)Al (z)zoyzEC2C2vThusxztransforms likeB,1111x2.1A1zA21-1Rz1-1xy1-11Bi-1RyxxzB2Rx1-1-1yyz
• The characters for xy are simply found by multiplying together the characters for the IR B1 , which is how x transforms, and for the IR B2 , which is how y transforms, operation by operation: This kind of multiplication is called the direct product: B1⊗ B2= A2 . • To take another example, if we wanted to know how xz transforms: Thus xz transforms like B1

3.3 Direct product of two-dimensional irreducible representations • Two-dimensional IRs have character 2 under the identity operation, and are always denoted by a label E. （e.g., E IR in C3v) • Property 1 from the previous section still applies. For example, if we take the direct product A1⊗E we obtain E. • Property 2 does not apply. If we compute E ⊗ E , we find E ⊗ E = E A1 A2 • Modified version of property 2: The direct product of an IR with itself contains the totally symmetric IR. This trend holds for higher-dimensional IRs. E ⊗ E 4 1 0 = E A1 A2

3.4 Further points • How does xyz transforms in the group C2v? Consider the triple direct product: • The direct product is commutative and distributive. Thus xyz transforms as A2 . = A2 . • Simple numbers (scalars) transform as the totally symmetric IR, as a number is unaffected by any symmetry operation. i.e. B1⊗ B2= B2⊗ B1 and (B1⊗B2 ) ⊗ A1= B1⊗ (B2⊗A1 ).

3.5 Summary: If two functions transform as the IRs (iand r), respectively, then their producttransforms as the direct product of the two IRs o): The direct product is found by multiplying the characters of the two IRs for eachsymmetry operation: (a, b, c, . . .) @(p, q, r, .. ) = (axp, b xq, cxr, . . .). The totally symmetric IR, Frot sym, has character +1 for all operations.. For any IR i: @rot. sym= [(i).For any one-dimensional IR:i @Ti)=Trot sym.: For any higher-dimensional IR the result of the product I(i @r(i) contains Ftot sym. Scalars (numbers) transform as the totally symmetric IR
