- Title
- Interacting fermionic crystalline topological phases for all 3D space groups
- Plain
- Crystal symmetries such as rotations and reflections protect extra topological phases, and for interacting electrons in three dimensions the complete list for all 230 crystal symmetry groups is not known.
- Precise
- For interacting fermions with U(1) charge conservation, spin-orbit coupling and time reversal, classify 3D symmetry-protected topological phases for each of the 230 space groups, for example by real-space block-state (topological crystal) constructions, and determine which free-fermion topological crystalline insulators stay distinct with interactions. An answer is a table of classification groups per space group with explicit generators.
- Settled by
- A complete block-state or equivalent computation for all 230 space groups, cross-checked against free-fermion symmetry-indicator results.

- Status note
- Bosonic crystalline phases and 2D fermionic wallpaper-group cases were classified by about 2020; to this survey's knowledge the full 3D interacting fermionic table is not complete as of 2026.
