Somewhat paradoxically, symmetry is seen to play an important role in the understanding of the Jahn-Teller effect, the very nature of which is symmetry destruction [52], In a recent review the original paper published by Jahn and Teller [53] was called one of the most seminal papers in chemical physics [54], Only a brief discussion of this effect will be given here for more detail we refer the reader to References [55-59], Bersuker says that all structural instabilities and distortions of high-symmetry configurations of polyatomic systems are of Jahn-Teller origin (here he also refers to other related effects, such as the Renner-Teller effect and the pseudo-Jahn-Teller effect—they will be mentioned later). Bersuker likes to call this the... 

The generalized Jahn-Teller effect (JTE) [including proper JTE, pseudo-JTE (PJTE), and Renner-Teller effects (RTE)] in its present understanding is a local feature of any polyatomic system that describes its properties in high-symmetry configurations... 

Similar arguments apply to coupling operators that are even functions of Q, as in the (pseudo-)Renner-Teller effect of which even less is known. Of special interest is the relation of Jahn-Teller and Renner-Teller couplings in system where they occur together. This comparison also requires overtone REPs and is facilitated by the fact that Renner-Teller coupling will produce dispersion of their depolarization ratio for systems in which Jahn-Teller coupling produces no dispersion (Pawlikowski and Zgierski, 1977, 1978). 

Fig. 1. The adiabatic potentials (AP) in the Jahn-Teller (a), Renner-Teller (b), and pseudo-Jahn-Teller (c) effects for systems with a double degenerate electronic term interacting with one coordinate Q (E bi problem in the JT case). In all three cases the ground state is unstable in the high-symmetry configuration <2 = 0, while the stable configurations at Q0 are at lower symmetry. The differences between these cases are in the behavior of the AP at Q = 0.
