Abstract
We suggest defining two types of sites in the space groups and it is shown that symmorphic space groups sites of type Ⅱ whose coordinates consist of only coordinate variables and zeros correspond to possible ferroelectric phases. By collecting the sites of type Ⅱ in the symmorphic space groups from International Tables for X-ray crystallography 88 possible para-ferroelectric phase transitions are obtained.
