In this article, we provide a pedagogical review of the theory of topological quantum chemistry and topological crystalline insulators. We begin with an overview of the properties of crystal symmetry groups in position and momentum space. Next, we introduce the concept of a band representation, which quantifies the symmetry of topologically trivial band structures. By combining band representations with symmetry constraints on the connectivity of bands in momentum space, we show how topologically nontrivial bands can be cataloged and classified. We present several examples of new topological phases discovered using this paradigm and conclude with an outlook toward future developments. Expected final online publication date for the Annual Review of Condensed Matter Physics, Volume 12 is March 10, 2021.
