According to [1], corundum has point group D3d in Schoenflies notation.
Character Tables at [2,3] have for D3d:
A1g with x2 + y2, z2 in quadratic notation
Eg with (x2 − y2, xy), (xz, yz) in quadratic notation
Prof. Blaha at [4] mentioned that with ISPLIT=4, the header of case.qtl
is expected to give:
s,p,pz,pxy,d,d-z2,(d-xy,dx2-y2),(d-xz,dyz),f
Therefore, it looks like A1g is given as d-z2 and Eg is give as
(d-xy,dx2-y2) and (d-xz,dyz).
At [3], if you click the "Click here to get more detailed information on
they symmetry operations" link on the webpage, it gives another webpage
with another table having a "Matrix form" column that seems to
correspond to the transformation matrices (Identity, Inverse, Rotations,
etc. [5]) used create the character table [8,9].
It is not clear to me what you mean by pi and sigma. Is pi for example
when two d-xz orbitals overlap such as that in the image of [6,7]?

Dear expert,
Can you anyone suggest what rotation matrix for
V2O3 corundum structure with qsplit=4 should I take to decoupling the
d orbital, a1g,eg\pi, eg\sigma?
Thanks
Wasim
