The 6j-symbol is a fundamental object from the re-coupling theory of SU(2) representations. In the limit of large angular momenta, its asymptotics is known to be described by the geometry of a tetrahedron with quantized lengths. This…
We study the asymptotic expansion of the 6j-symbol using the Schulten-Gordon recursion relations. We focus on the particular case of the isosceles tetrahedron and we provide explicit formulas for up to the third order corrections beyond the…
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…
The eigenvalue hypothesis claims that any quantum Racah matrix for finite-dimensional representations of $U_q(sl_N)$ is uniquely determined by eigenvalues of the corresponding quantum $\cal{R}$-matrices. If this hypothesis turns out to be…
We prove that the asymptotic behavior of the recoupling coefficients of the symmetric group is characterized by a quantum marginal problem -- namely, by the existence of quantum states of three particles with given eigenvalues for their…
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…
The cyclic quantum dilogarithm is interpreted as a cyclic 6j-symbol of the Weyl algebra, considered as a Borel subalgebra $BU_q(sl(2))$. Using modified 6j-symbols, an invariant of triangulated links in triangulated 3-manifolds is…
This paper treats 6j symbols or their orthonormal forms as a function of two variables spanning a square manifold which we call the "screen". We show that this approach gives important and interesting insight. This two dimensional…
A classical 6j-symbol is a real number which can be associated to a labelling of the six edges of a tetrahedron by irreducible representations of SU(2). This abstract association is traditionally used simply to express the symmetry of the…
We study recurrence relations for various Wigner 3nj-symbols and the non-topological 10j-symbol. For the 6j-symbol and the 15j-symbols which correspond to basic amplitudes of 3d and 4d topological spin foam models, recurrence relations are…
The corrected triple sum expression of Ali\v{s}auskas (1987) for the recoupling (Racah) coefficients (6j-symbols) of the symmetric (most degenerate) representations of the orthogonal groups SO(n) (previously derived from the fourfold sum…
The $6j$-symbols for representations of the $\mathrm{SU}(2)$ quantum group are given by Hahn-Exton $q$-Bessel functions. This interpretation leads to several summation identities for the $q$-Bessel functions. Multivariate $q$-Bessel…
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 show that the complex hypergeometric function describing $6j$-symbols for $SL(2,\mathbb{C})$ group is a special degeneration of the $V$-function -- an elliptic analogue of the Euler-Gauss $_2F_1$ hypergeometric function. For this…
We have developed an efficient tabulation scheme to evaluate $6j$ symbol for atomic calculations. The scheme is appropriate for coupled-cluster based calculations. In particular, for perturbed coupled-clusters calculations, which has…
On basis of generalized 6j-symbols we give a formulation of topological quantum field theories for 3-manifolds including observables in the form of coloured graphs. It is shown that the 6j-symbols associated with deformations of the…
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…
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…
Recent interest in the Kashaev-Murakami-Murakami hyperbolic volume conjecture has made it seem important to be able to understand the asymptotic behaviour of certain special functions arising from representation theory -- for example, of…
The present monograph explores the correspondence between quantum and classical mechanics in the particular context of spin systems, that is, SU(2)-symmetric mechanical systems. Here, a detailed presentation of quantum spin-j systems, with…
