The eigenstates of the reflectivity operator are formed out of states of good ''J,m'' as follows.
 
:<math>| J m \epsilon \rangle = | J m \rangle + \epsilon P (-1)^{J-m} | J \; -m \rangle    </math>
 
:<math>| J m \epsilon \rangle = | J m \rangle + \epsilon P (-1)^{J-m} | J \; -m \rangle    </math>
where &epsilon;=&plusmn;1, such that

where &epsilon;=&plusmn;1 for a bosonic system and &epsilon;=&plusmn;i for a fermionic system.  It follows that
 
:<math>\mathbb{R}| J m \epsilon \rangle =  \epsilon (-1)^{2J} | J m \epsilon \rangle </math>
 
:<math>\mathbb{R}| J m \epsilon \rangle =  \epsilon (-1)^{2J} | J m \epsilon \rangle </math>
