Is there any book or source avaliable that clearly shows the point symmetry operation with matrix representations?

Thanks for your advice but can't find any printed or electronic version.

Is there any alternative?

I recommend Matveev, Mayer, Roesch, ``Efficient symmetry treatment for the nonrelativistic and relativistic molecular Kohn-Sham problem.'', Comp. Phys. Comm 160 91 (2004), http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.cpc.2004.02.013 . They give a general, yet concise and very elegant approach to evaluating matrix representations and irreducible representations of arbitrary point groups.

Thanks for the posts.
Theese are actually what I need.
