In the present paper we discuss the eigenvalue conjecture, suggested in 2012, in the particular case of $U_q(sl_2)$. The eigenvalue conjecture provides a certain symmetry for Racah coefficients and we prove that \textbf{the eigenvalue…
Racah matrices of quantum algebras are of great interest at present time. These matrices have a relation with $\mathcal{R}$-matrices, which are much simpler than the Racah matrices themselves. This relation is known as the eigenvalue…
We describe the inclusive Racah matrices for the first non-(anti)symmetric rectangular representation R=[2,2] for quantum groups U_q(sl_N). Most of them have sizes 2, 3, and 4 and are fully described by the eigenvalue hypothesis. Of two 6x6…
A well known recurrence relation for the 6j-symbol of the quantum group su_q(2) is realized as a tridiagonal, symmetric eigenvalue problem. This formulation can be used to implement an efficient numerical evaluation algorithm, taking…
Explicit expressions are found for the $6j$ symbols in symmetric representations of quantum $\mathfrak{su}_N$ through appropriate hypergeometric Askey-Wilson (q-Racah) polynomials. This generalizes the well-known classical formulas for…
Character expansion expresses extended HOMFLY polynomials through traces of products of finite dimensional R- and Racah mixing matrices. We conjecture that the mixing matrices are expressed entirely in terms of the eigenvalues of the…
Computing polynomial form of the colored HOMFLY-PT for non-arborescent knots obtained from three or more strand braids is still an open problem. One of the efficient methods suggested for the three-strand braids relies on the eigenvalue…
We study 6j-symbols, or Racah coefficients for tensor products of infinite-dimensional unitary principal series representations of the group SL(2,C). These symbols were constructed earlier by Ismagilov and we rederive his result (up to some…
A closed form expression for multiplicity-free quantum 6-j symbols (MFS) was proposed in arXiv:1302.5143 for symmetric representations of $U_q(sl_N)$, which are the simplest class of multiplicity-free representations. In this paper we…
Horn's problem is concerned with characterizing the eigenvalues $(a,b,c)$ of Hermitian matrices $(A,B,C)$ satisfying the constraint $A+B=C$ and forming the edges of a triangle in the space of Hermitian matrices. It has deep connections to…
We will relate the surprising Regge symmetry of the Racah-Wigner 6j symbols to the surprising Okamoto symmetry of the Painleve VI differential equation. This then presents the opportunity to give a conceptual derivation of the Regge…
We will attach a scalar invariant to a tetrahedron whose edges are labelled by irreducible representations of a ternary orthogonal group $\mathrm{SO}_3$ over a local field. This generalizes the $6j$ symbol whose theory was developed by…
Increasing interest is being dedicated in the last few years to the issues of exact computations and asymptotics of spin networks. The large-entries regimes (semiclassical limits) occur in many areas of physics and chemistry, and in…
It shown that the five Regge transformations act as a spectrometric splitter on any 6-j symbol. Four unknown partitions are brought out: S4(0), S4(1), S(2) and S4(5). They are stable subsets, with well defined parameters depending only on…
It is well-known that the SU(2) quantum Racah coefficients or the Wigner $6j$ symbols have a closed form expression which enables the evaluation of any knot or link polynomials in SU(2) Chern-Simons field theory. Using isotopy equivalence…
We revisit the definition of the 6j-symbols from the modular double of U_q(sl(2,R)), referred to as b-6j symbols. Our new results are (i) the identification of particularly natural normalization conditions, and (ii) new integral…
In this paper we derive new symmetry and new expression for $6j$-symbols of the unitary principal series representations of the $SL(2,\mathbb{C})$ group. This allowed us to derive for them the analogue of the Regge symmetry.
We introduce a novel symmetry for quantum 6j-symbols, which we call the tug-the-hook symmetry. Unlike other known symmetries, it is applicable for any representations, including ones with multiplicities. We provide several evidences in…
We conjecture a closed form expression for the simplest class of multiplicity-free quantum 6j-symbols for U_q(sl_N). The expression is a natural generalization of the quantum 6j-symbols for U_q(sl_2) obtained by Kirillov and Reshetikhin.…
For a system with three identical nucleons in a single-$j$ shell, the states can be written as the angular momentum coupling of a nucleon pair and the odd nucleon. The overlaps between these non-orthonormal states form a matrix which…
