Abstract
The classification of stable symmetries of the Jahn-Teller systems for common symmetry groups with degenerate relativistic and non-relativistic electronic states is elaborated. The results obtained by epikernel principle and by the method of step-by-step symmetry descent are compared. The deficiency of the epikernel principle is demonstrated on some examples of the Jahn-Teller phase transitions.
