Using Group Theory to Obtain Eigenvalues of Nonsymmetric Systems by Symmetry Averaging

If the Hamiltonian in the time independent Schrödinger equation, HΨ = EΨ, is invariant under a group of symmetry transformations, the theory of group representations can help obtain the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of H. A finite group that is not a symmetry group of H is nevertheless a symmetry gro...
