  1. Point Symmetry Groups w/ improper operations Any group containing 2nd sort operations also contains 1st sort operations (Aa i) (Ba i) = Aa Ba i i = Aa Ba

  2. Point Symmetry Groups w/ improper operations Any group containing 2nd sort operations also contains 1st sort operations (Aa i) (Ba i) = Aa Ba i i = Aa Ba 1st sort operations in such a group G form a subgroup of index 2 g = 1 a2 …. an Bg = B Ba2 …. Ban B is any 2nd sort operation in G

  3. Point Symmetry Groups w/ improper operations Any group containing 2nd sort operations also contains 1st sort operations (Aa i) (Ba i) = Aa Ba i i = Aa Ba 1st sort operations in such a group G form a subgroup of index 2 g = 1 a2 …. an Bg = B Ba2 …. Ban B is any 2nd sort operation in G (Ba i) ar = (Ba ar) i all 2nd sort operations in Bg 1st sort

  4. Point Symmetry Groups w/ improper operations 1. Any group of 2nd sort contains equal nos. of operations of 1st & 2nd sort 2. In any group of the 2nd sort, 1st sort operations form a subgroup of index 2

  5. Point Symmetry Groups w/ improper operations 1. Any group of 2nd sort contains equal nos. of operations of 1st & 2nd sort 2. In any group of the 2nd sort, 1st sort operations form a subgroup of index 2 3. A group of the 2nd sort can be formed by adding any second sort operation (and its products) to a group such that it transforms that group into itself

  6. Point Symmetry Groups w/ improper operations 1. Any group of 2nd sort contains equal nos. of operations of 1st & 2nd sort 2. In any group of the 2nd sort, 1st sort operations form a subgroup of index 2 3. A group of the 2nd sort can be formed by adding any second sort operation (and its products) to a group such that it transforms that group into itself 4. All groups of the 2nd sort can be formed by starting with all groups of the 1st sort & adding each possible 2nd sort operation (i or m) & products which transforms the group into itself

  7. Point Symmetry Groups w/ improper operations Any rotoinversion axis, except those for which n = 4N, can be decomposed into a combination of rotation axis & inversion or reflection

  8. Point Symmetry Groups not containing i G = g, ng = g, gn (g of index 2…cosets =…n transforms g into itself) For every pt grp G of 1st sort which can be expressed as product of subgroup g of index 2 and operation of 1st sort n (n even), can get a corresponding group G from same subgrp & 2nd sort operation n

  9. Point Symmetry Groups not containing i G = g, ng = g, gn (g of index 2…cosets =…n transforms g into itself) For every pt grp G of 1st sort which can be expressed as product of subgroup g of index 2 and operation of 1st sort n (n even), can get a corresponding group G from same subgrp & 2nd sort operation n 2 (=m) 4 6 (If n odd, order of n = 2x that of n)

  12. Point Symmetry Groups containing i wrt i, any proper point group is of index 2 … i transforms any group into itself So, get new groups by G i
