Real-space recipes for general topological crystalline states

Symmetry protected topological states have an impressive robustness to perturbations. Typical examples are topological insulators. Here the authors present a general recipe for constructing crystalline-symmetry protected topological states, valid for both non-interacting and interacting systems.
