Symmetries of quantum group coupling coefficients

  • 1. Duke Univ., Durham, NC (USA). Dept. of Physics

Description

Quantum groups are new algebraic symmetry structures which have recently found application in many diverse fields of physics. We discuss the simplest of such structures: SUq(2) - the q-analog of the familiar quantal angular momentum group SU(2) - and determine in complete detail the symmetries, under exchange of q-angular momenta, of the (q-3j) and (q-6j) coefficients.
