9 j-Coefficients and Higher

Abstract: 9 j-Coefficients and higher Joris Van der Jeugt 12.1 Introduction 3 j-Coefficients (or 3 j-symbols), 6 j-coefficients, 9 j-coefficients and higher (referred to as 3n jcoefficients) play a crucial role in various physical applications dealing with the quantization of angular momentum. This is because the quantum operators of angular momentum satisfy the su(2) commutation relations. So the 3n j-coefficients in this chapter are 3n j-coefficients of the Lie algebra su(2). For these coefficients, we shall emphasize… Show more

“…Further continuation of our study of the mapping properties of these functions was made clear by previous and our work on the group theoretic description of the transformation properties of these functions (see e.g., [12,16] and Propositions 15,17 below). This work in this present paper provides a framework for future work on the symmetry analysis of terminating basic hypergeometric functions which is more complicated than that for the nonterminating case [15] and that it is not surprising that the classes of terminating basic hypergeometric functions are not connected by the known nonterminating transformations (see Figures 1,2,3 below). In this paper, for the first time, we present the full symmetry structure of the terminating 8 W 7 representations for the Askey-Wilson polynomials and a detailed connection with the terminating balanced 4 φ 3 representations.…”

“…Both expressions (29), (30), map to the basic hypergeometric representation (17), except with (30), one has θ → −θ. For the 4 φ 3 expressions under the standard map (43), the expression (31) maps to (16) and the expression (32) maps to (15). Similarly for the 8 W 7 expressions using (43), then (22), (23) (θ → −θ) map to (21); (24) maps to (20); ( 27), (26) (θ → −θ) maps to (18); and (25), (28) (θ → −θ) maps to (19).…”
