This table lists point group symmetries along with their symmetry operations, the order of the group (i.e. the number of symmetry operations) and common notations.maps to symbollinks to a correlation table, and ⊗ links to tables of products of irreducible representations. The group produced by combination with inversion is listed under "× i". This, in the case of crystolographic point groups, is the Laue class which corresponds to the symmetry of reciprocal space. Isomorphic groups are also listed where character tables are available.
