Abstract
Band representations are considered in the framework of the ordinary representation theory of space groups. The band representation characterizes the symmetry of all the electronic states of an energy band. Any band representation coincides with a soβcalled simple band representation or is a direct sum of the latter. The whole number of simple band representations is finite for any space group. The type of a band representation determines the symmetry of the localized functions related with a given energy band.

The structure of the representation of the space-time translation group in relativistic quantum theory is examined by means of an operator spectral integral. There is one and only one operator-valued function on the complex forward cone which is an analytic continuation of that representation.
