Two possible topological states for the symmetry indicator Z2,2,2,4={0,0,0,2} (47)

(ν0;ν1ν2ν3) n2[11¯0] nM[11¯0] nI
(0;000) 1 0 1
(0;000) 0 2 1

(ν0;ν1ν2ν3) are the Z2 invariants for 3D Z2 TIs. n2[11¯0] is a Z2 invariant for the twofold rotational symmetry 2[11¯0]. n2[11¯0]=1 corresponds to a rotational-symmetry–protected TCI, which features two unpinned Dirac surface states on the (11¯0) surface. nM[11¯0] is the mirror Chern number for mirror plane M[11¯0] and is a ZN invariant. nM[11¯0]=N features N Dirac surface states. Finally, nI is the Z2 classified inversion (I) protected TCI index. nI=1 features the hinge state in a 3D finite geometry preserving I.
