Check the anaddb output file, for the q=0 phonons. It will give you the characters of each of the modes wrt each of the symmetry operations. Then you match those to the character tables of the irreducible representations of the group, and you can assign the A1 E B1 etc...

Dear all,

I have done Response Function(1-5) to compute phonon frequencies of PbTiO3 and
I got 15 frequencies.
Could anyone tell me that, is it possible to demonstrate these frequencie in
standard group theory? (gamma= 4A1+5E+B1)
if yes, how can I indicate these frequencies by symmetry elements(A1,E,B1)?

Thanks alot in advance

Best Regards,
Mozhgan Amini
