Decompose this reducible representation into its irreducible components and then from inspecting the character tables compose all of the possible combinations of s, p, d, f orbitals that can match that bonding arrangement.
Once you get your reducible representation decomposed use the type and number of each irreducible representation as a heading for a table of possible exact representations.
The reducible representation, the table of exact representations and the final hybrid orbitals are all required components for this question.

Therefore, the character of the reducible representation is the sum of the characters for the irreducible representations that comprise it.
Any representation of a group also gives a representation of a subgroup, but an irreducible representation of the group may give a reducible representation of a subgroup.
Their representations share many of the properties of the representations of finite groups, but the methods of working with the groups is somewhat different.

 Irreducible Representation -- from Wolfram MathWorld (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab2.cs.unc.edu)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
An irreducible representation of a group is a group representation that has no nontrivial invariant subspaces.
In a given representation, reducible or irreducible, the group characters of all matrices belonging to operations in the same class are identical (but differ from those in other representations).
The number of irreducible representations of a group is equal to the number of conjugacy classes in the group.

The number should come out as zero or as a positive integer: if it does not then either the formula has been used incorrectly or the reducible representation has been generated incorrectly...or both.

Given a field $K$ and a representation $\rho$ of a group to $SL(2,K)$, the \it character \rm of the representation sends a group element $g$ to the trace of the matrix $\rho (g)$.
Given a reducible representation $\rho$ of a group to $SL(2, K)$, we may assume after conjugate $\rho$ by an $SL(2,K)$ matrix that the image of $\rho$ is in the set of upper triangular matrices.
In particular, the representation $\rho$ induces a representation $\rho'$ of $G$ to $SL(2,K)$ whose character is $f$.

 Perception, Representation, and Reference
In some cases the knowledge to be reduced may not have been explicated to the level of detail of the reducing knowledge.
It may be argued that this form of reference depends upon the internal representation of the objects to be selected, and the problem of representation is the other side of the same coin of which reference is cast.
Symbols are "about" their referents; representations are "about" what they stand for; and perceptions are "about" that which gives rise to them (whether in physical or semantic environments).

If the representation is reducible, the OBJECT is composite, in the sense that it can be broken into more elementary objects belonging to irreducible representation.
I'm not sure what the mathematical requirements are for which reps are reducible and which are not, but for the usual goups we deal with, I think that reducible groups can always be put into irreducible form.

Now the reducible representation produced by the basis x,y,z is B + E. Consider 3 objects in a row, labelled 1,2 and 3.
What we are looking for is choices of bases for representations that reduce them to the simplest level, and these are the bases of the irreducible representations.
It is no accident that it also has three irreducible representations, since it happens that the number of inequivalent irreducible representations is equal to the number of classes, as we shall prove.

It appears that there are three realms: the realm of matter, the realm of representations, and the realm of qualia/intentions/consciousness, not just two: matter and consciousness.
Modern cognitive science holds that the representational realm is reducible to the functional realm, and I agree, although some, e.g.
Penrose may in some strange sense hold that consciousness is reducible to function, but believes that the right function can only be realized through quantum effects (but he's so vague that one can't know).

Three-year postdoctoral positions funded jointly by NSF and the university, with a reduced teaching load of one course per semester, support for summer research in each of the first two years, and additional funds for travel and other research-related expenses.
Some of them are: representation theory of infinite dimensional Lie algebras and quantum groups, combinatorics of weight multiplicities, invariants of knots and 3-manifolds, geometry of moduli spaces of flat G-bundles over surfaces, etc. This is roughly the direction of my research.
In recent years his research has been concentrated on the interplay between the theory of representations of semisimple Lie groups and the geometry of complex flag manifolds.

If it is not an integer then something went wrong either with your arithmetic or, more likely, with the determination of the characters of your reducible representation!!
We will assume that such a set of translations can be formed and we will make it the basis for a representation in the point group of a tetrahedron.
So we take the directional properties of the four translation vectors t1, t2, t3 and t4 as a basis for the representation of the point group Td.
