Hidden Symmetry of the Racah and Clebsch - Gordan Problems for the Quantum Algebra
نویسنده
چکیده
The Askey-Wilson algebra AW (3) with three generators is shown to serve as a hidden symmetry algebra underlying the Racah and (new) generalized Clebsch-Gordan problems for the quantum algebra sl q (2). On the base of this hidden symmetry a simple method to calculate corresponding coefficients in terms of the Askey-Wilson polynomials is proposed.

DUAL PROPERTIES OF ORTHOGONAL POLYNOMIALS OF DISCRETE VARIABLES ASSOCIATED WITH THE QUANTUM ALGEBRA Uq(su(2))
We show that for every set of discrete polynomials yn(x(s)) on the lattice x(s), defined on a finite interval (a, b), it is possible to construct two sets of dual polynomials zk(ξ(t)) of degrees k = s−a and k = b− s− 1. Here we do this for the classical and alternative Hahn and Racah polynomials as well as for their q-analogs. Also we establish the connection between classical and alternative f...
متن کاملHow a Clebsch-Gordan transform helps to solve the Heisenberg hidden subgroup problem
It has recently been shown that quantum computers can efficiently solve the Heisenberg hidden subgroup problem, a problem whose classical query complexity is exponential. This quantum algorithm was discovered within the framework of using pretty-good measurements for obtaining optimal measurements in the hidden subgroup problem. Here we show how to solve the Heisenberg hidden subgroup problem u...
متن کاملWilson Function Transforms Related to Racah Coefficients
The irreducible ∗-representations of the Lie algebra su(1, 1) consist of discrete series representations, principal unitary series and complementary series. We calculate Racah coefficients for tensor product representations that consist of at least two discrete series representations. We use the explicit expressions for the Clebsch-Gordan coefficients as hypergeometric functions to find explici...

The Clebsch-Gordan and Racah-Wigner coefficients for the positive (or negative) discrete series of irreducible representations for the noncompact form Uq(SU(1, 1)) of the algebra Uq(sl(2)) are computed. n0. Introduction Now it is well known the great significance which the Clebsch-Gordan and RacahWigner coefficients for the algebra Uq(SU(2)) has in the conformal field theory, topological field ...
متن کاملAnalysis on the Su ( 2 ) Dynamical Quantum Group
Dynamical quantum groups were recently introduced by Etingof and Varchenko as an algebraic framework for studying the dynamical Yang–Baxter equation, which is precisely the Yang–Baxter equation satisfied by 6j-symbols. We investigate one of the simplest examples, generalizing the standard SU(2) quantum group. The matrix elements for its corepresentations are identified with Askey–Wilson polynom...
