Relativistic quantum chemical calculations on molecular systems can greatly be expedited by making use of the full molecular symmetry, including both double point group and time-reversal symmetry. A simple yet general scheme is proposed here to make double point group symmetry functions also form Kramers pairs such that the resulting operator matrices have the desired structure (i.e., quaternion, complex, or real). The key idea is to insert appropriate phase factors into the symmetry functions or make a Suitable unitary transformation of them. Arbitrary finite double point groups can be hand led in the same way. As for a product basis, the same symmetrization can be achieved by simple modifications of the vector coupling (Clebsch-Gordan) coefficients. This is especially of interest to, e.g., time-dependent relativistic density functional linear response theory or relativistic two-electron repulsion integral evaluations in general. Several examples are provided to illustrate the algorithm and its efficiency. (C) 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem 109: 2149-2167, 2009
