Quantum Chemistry and Spectroscopy - Quantum Chemistry 12.9 - Symmetry Operator Matrices

Short lecture on matrices for symmetry operators. One way to represent symmetry operations is as 3x3 matrices in 3-d Cartesian space. Each operator is a unique matrix defined by its effect on objects. This representation is reducible, because it's not the simplest possible way to represent the operators.
