Symmetry analysis of translational symmetry broken density waves: Application to hexagonal lattices in two dimensions

In this work we introduce a symmetry classification for electronic density waves which break translational symmetry due to commensurate wave-vector modulations. The symmetry classification builds on the concept of extended point groups: symmetry groups which contain, in addition to the lattice point...
