An identity on SU(2) invariants

  • 1. Department of Physics, Arizona State University, Tempe, AZ 85287-1504 (United States)

Description

We prove an identity among SU(2) 6j and 9j symbols that generalizes the Biedenharn-Elliott sum rule. We prove the result using diagrammatic techniques (briefly reviewed here), and then provide an algebraic proof. This identity is useful for studying meson-baryon scattering in which an extra isoscalar meson is produced
