Description

The paper deals with the tensor product decomposition problem. Tensor product decompositions are of great importance in the quantum physics. A short outline of the state of the art for the of semisimple Lie groups is mentioned. The generality of generating functions is used to solve tensor products. The corresponding generating function is rational. The feature of this technique lies in the fact that the decompositions of all tensor products of all irreducible representations are solved simultaneously. Obtaining the generating function is a difficult task in general. We propose some changes to an algorithm using Patera-Sharp character generators to find this generating function, which simplifies the whole problem to simple operations over rational functions
