GTWignerProjectionOperator

GTWignerProjectionOperator[group,irep,l,m,i,j]

applies the projection operator on spherical harmonics.

Details and Options

  • The rotation of spherical harmonics, using Euler angles is given by . is an arbitrary group element and is 1 for proper and -1 for improper rotations. is the WignerD-Function. Using this definition, the projection operator of the column and the row of the irreducible representation can be calculated by
  • The spherical harmonics are given algebraically and can be replaced by SphericalHamonicY or GTTesseralHarmonicY.
  • The following option can be given:
  • GOFast GOFastValueControls the input validation
  • See: W. Hergert, M.Geilhufe, Group Theory in Solid State Physics and Photonics. Problem Solving with Mathematica

GOFast  (2)

The evaluation time can be decreased, using GOFastTrue.

If GOFastFalse is used, a check of the input will be performed.
