The Clebsch-Gordan coefficients or Wigner $3j$ symbols are known to be proportional to a $_3F_2(1)$ hypergeometric series, and Racah $6j$ coefficients to a $_4F_3(1)$. In general, however, non-trivial $9j$ symbols can not be expressed as a…

The model which generalizes Ponzano and Regge $3D$ and Carfora-Martellini-Marzuoli $4D$ euclidean quantum gravity is considered. The euclidean Einstein-Regge action for a $D$-simplex is given in the semiclassical limit by a gaussian…
We consider the universal solution of the Gervais-Neveu-Felder equation in the ${\cal U}_q(sl_2)$ case. We show that it has a quasi-Hopf algebra interpretation. We also recall its relation to quantum 3-j and 6-j symbols. Finally, we use…
We construct representations of the quantum algebras ~$U_{q{\bf q}}(gl(n))$ and ~$U_{q{\bf q}}(sl(n))$~ which are in duality with the multiparameter quantum groups ~$GL_{q{\bf q}}(n)$, ~$SL_{q{\bf q}}(n)$,~ respectively. These objects…
