Notes:
A new method is used to arrive at Kotani's formula (vide infra) for the character of the representation of the group of spatial symmetry provided by functions which are eigenfunctions of the total spin operator. An alternative form involving determinants of the symmetric functions is also given. The results are applied to some cases which were untreated before and have particular interest in valence-bond calculations. The problem of the construction of bases functions of the given symmetry is also discussed, and a solution with a wide range of applicability is given.
