Abstract
The aim of this paper is to give an algebraic formula for symmetry-adapted linear combinations avoiding intuitive or laborious projection operator techniques. By utilization of the tabulated Clebsch-Gordan coefficients and surface harmonics of the point-groups the symmetry-adapted linear combinations are given in formula (4). A five-step algorithm is proposed and the example of a tetrahedron worked out. The relation to methods using site symmetry is discussed.
