Abstract
Abstract A procedure is presented for dealing with improper crystal symmetry operators (i.e. those involving anti-identity operators) that differs from the conventional space-time formulation. A disadvantage of the procedure is the suppression of the fundamental reasons why property tensors behave in different ways (e.g. polar and axial behaviour) under improper operations - as derived from constitutive equations by using the techniques of multivector analysis and the concepts of inner and outer orientation. The main advantages of the procedure are that it is easy to understand and that it avoids the controversy that has surrounded the application of the space-time formulation to the transport properties of magnetic crystals.
