RECURSION RELATIONS AND SIMPLIFIED EXPRESSIONS FOR THE 6-j SYMBOLS
Description:
It is shown that the 144 symmetry properties of the 6-j symbols which were discovered by Regge can be displayed with a 4 x 4 array that is invariant to the ordering of three of the rows and all columns. The elements of the array are linear combinations of the quantum numbers. In addition, it is shown that a large set of three-term recursion relations exist. The recursion relations are used to deduce simplified expressions for the 6-j symbois in special cases. (auth)
