The multiplicities of the decomposition of the product of an arbitrary number $n$ of spin $s$ states into irreducible $SU(2)$ representations are computed. Two complementary methods are presented, one based on random walks in representation…

We consider non-trivial irreducible tensor products of modular representations of a symmetric group $S_n$ in characteristic 2 for even $n$ completing the proof of a classification conjecture of Gow and Kleshchev about such products.

In our previous article [Letsios 2023 J. High Energ. Phys. JHEP05(2023)015], we showed that the strictly massless spin-3/2 field, as well as the strictly and partially massless spin-5/2 fields, on $N$-dimensional ($N \geq 3 $) de Sitter…

A new classical 2-spinor approach to $U(1)$ gauge theory is presented in which the usual four-potential vector field is replaced by a symmetric second rank spinor. Following a lagrangian formulation, it is shown that the four-rank spinor…

Causality constrains the gravitational interactions of massive higher spin particles in both AdS and flat spacetime. We explore the extent to which these constraints apply to composite particles, explaining why they do not rule out…

In this paper, we prove Dahmen and Beukers' conjecture that the number of integral Lam\'{e} equations with index $n$ modulo scalar equivalence with the monodromy group dihedral $D_{N}$ of order $2N$ is given by \[L_{n}(N)=\frac{1}{2}\left(…

We prove statement conjectured in [Baez and Barrett:2001] that every 3-edge-connected SL(2,C) spin-network with invariants of certain class is integrable. It means that the regularized evaluation (defined by a suitable integral) of such a…

We prove a conjecture of Medvedev and Scanlon for endomorphisms of connected commutative linear algebraic groups $G$ defined over an algebraically closed field $\mathbb{k}$ of characteristic $0$. That is, if $\Phi\colon G\longrightarrow G$…

We consider the Plancherel measure on irreducible components of tensor powers of the spinor representation of so(2n+1). The irreducible representations correspond to the generalized Young diagrams. With respect to this measure the…

In this paper Moussouris' algorithm for the decomposition of spin networks is reviewed and the implicit assumptions made in the Decomposition Theorem relating a spin network with its state sum are examined. It is found that the theorem in…

This paper provides a comparison between the $K$-structure of unipotent representations and regular sections of bundles on nilpotent orbits for complex groups of type $D$. Precisely, let $ G_ 0 =Spin(2n,\mathbb C)$ be the Spin complex group…

We study supersymmetric $SU(N-4)$ gauge theories with a symmetric tensor and $N$ antifundamental representations. The theory with $W=0$ has a dual description in terms of a non-chiral $Spin(8)$ theory with one spinor and $N$ vectors. This…

We study corners and fundamental corners of the irreducible representations of the groups G=Spin(n,1) that are not elementary, i.e. that are equivalent to subquotients of reducible nonunitary principal series representations. For even n we…

By bivariate irreducible representations of ${\rm Sp}(2r)$, we mean irreducible representations with highest weights containing at most two nonzero entries, using the usual identification of dominant weights for complex symplectic Lie…

Let $\lambda$, $\mu$, $\nu$ and $\rho$ be dominant weights of $\mathfrak{sl_n}$ satisfying $\lambda + \mu = \nu + \rho$. Let $V_{\lambda}$ denote the highest weight module corresponding to $\lambda$. Lam, Postnikov, Pylyavskyy conjectured a…
