particle physics - What is the difference between "additive" quantum numbers and "multiplicative" quantum numbers?


What is the difference between "additive" quantum numbers and "multiplicative" quantum numbers?


I think that this may have something to do with P and C Symmetry groups, but I may be mistaken.


I’m reading in "Halzen, F., and A. D. Martin. Quarks & Leptons: An Introductory Course in Modern Particle Physics. New York, NY: John Wiley & Sons, 1984. ISBN: 9780471887416", section 2.5.
