1. On the relation between quantum mechanics and group theory there exist several detailed textbooks: H. Wel, The Theory of Groups and Quantum Mechanics, Dover Publications, New York (1950)
2. E.P. Wigner, Group Theory and Its Applications to the Quantum Mechanics of Atomic Spectra, Academic Press, New York (1959)
3. B.L. van der Waerden, Die Gruppentheoretische Methode in der Quantenmechanik, Springer Verlag, Berlin (1932); W. Pauli, Continuous Groups in Quantum Mechanics, Mimeographed lectures. CERN-publications, (1956).* We make here a very rapid survey of the subject and refer the reder for all proofs and details to these textbooks.
