We derive a new asymptotic formula for the Wigner $9j$-symbol, in the limit of one small and eight large angular momenta, using a novel gauge-invariant factorization for the asymptotic solution of a set of coupled wave equations. Our…
We describe libwignernj, a freely available, BSD-licensed library that evaluates Wigner 3j, 6j, and 9j symbols, Clebsch--Gordan, Racah $W$, and Fano $X$ coefficients, and Gaunt coefficients over both complex and real spherical harmonics in…
Ten values of 12-j symbols of the first kind published earlier are challenged by values calculated with an independent Python program. The program first implements a narrow class of square roots of rational numbers, utilizing Python's…
Within the framework of the theory of irreducible tensor operators, using well-known general analytical results for double sums ($\sum_{jm}$) of products of two $3j$-Wigner symbols, analytical expressions for single sums ($\sum_m$) for the…
The contribution of Jacques Raynal to angular-momentum theory is highly valuable. In the present article, I intend to recall the main aspects of his work related to Wigner $3j$ symbols. It is well known that the latter can be expressed with…
The calculation of angular-momentum coupling transformation matrices can be very time consuming and alternative methods, even if they apply only in special cases, are helpful. We present a recursion relation for the calculation of…
We analyze the asymptotics of the Wigner $3j$-symbol as a matrix element connecting eigenfunctions of a pair of integrable systems, obtained by lifting the problem of the addition of angular momenta into the space of Schwinger's…
The Wigner rotation matrix ($d$-function), which appears as a part of the angular-momentum-projection operator, plays a crucial role in modern nuclear-structure models. However, it is a long-standing problem that its numerical evaluation…
We show that general $3n-j (n>2)$ symbols of the first kind and the second kind for the group SU(2) can be reformulated in terms of binomial coefficients. The proof is based on the graphical technique established by Yutsis, et al. and…
We study a class of SU(N) Wigner 6j symbols involving two fundamental representations, and derive explicit formulae for all 6j symbols in this class. Our formulae express the 6j symbols in terms of the dimensions of the involved…
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…
We present new sum rules for $3jm$ coefficients, which involve, in addition to the usual weighting factor $(2j + 1)$ where $j$ is an angular momentum, the quantity $[j(j + 1)]^k$ with $k \ge 1$. The sum rules appear for instance in the…
Seven different triple sum formulas for $9j$ coefficients of the quantum algebra $u_q(2)$ are derived, using for these purposes the usual expansion of $q$-$9j$ coefficients in terms of $q$-$6j$ coefficients and recent summation formula of…
The Wigner $3j$ symbols of the quantum angular momentum theory are related to the vector coupling or Clebsch-Gordan coefficients and to the Hahn and dual Hahn polynomials of the discrete orthogonal hyperspherical family, of use in…
We present the asymptotic formula for the Wigner 9j-symbol, valid when all quantum numbers are large, in the classically allowed region. As in the Ponzano-Regge formula for the 6j-symbol, the action is expressed in terms of lengths of edges…
Yu and Littlejohn recently studied in arXiv:1104.1499 some asymptotics of Wigner symbols with some small and large angular momenta. They found that in this regime the essential information is captured by the geometry of a tetrahedron, and…
We derive an asymptotic formula for the Wigner $12j$ symbol, in the limit of one small and 11 large angular momenta. There are two kinds of asymptotic formulas for the $12j$ symbol with one small angular momentum. We present the first kind…
A new uniform asymptotic approximation for the Wigner $6j$ symbol is given in terms of Wigner rotation matrices ($d$-matrices). The approximation is uniform in the sense that it applies for all values of the quantum numbers, even those near…
A unified vision of the symmetric coupling of angular momenta and of the quantum mechanical volume operator is illustrated. The focus is on the quantum mechanical angular momentum theory of Wigner's 6j symbols and on the volume operator of…
We present new asymptotic formulas for the Wigner $15j$-symbol with two, three, or four small quantum numbers, and provide numerical evidence of their validity. These formulas are of the WKB form and are of a similar nature as the…
