摘要:

从定义$SO(4,R)$群的复矩阵变换出发,构造了群$SO(4,R)$的基本表示和张量、旋量表示.给出相应代数的对易关系,构造了群的广义欧拉角酉表示。量子引力中Barrett-Crane模型的关键步骤是描述用于态和配分函数的量子4-单形的振幅。我们得到了构造SO(4,R)不变权的带状球函数,并将它们与4-单形的三角形面联系起来。

英文摘要:

Starting from the defining transformations of complex matrices for the $SO(4,R)$ group, we construct the fundamental representation and the tensor and spinor representations of the group $SO(4,R)$. Given the commutation relations for the corresponding algebra, the unitary representations of the group in terms of the generalized Euler angles are constructed. The crucial step for the Barrett-Crane model in Quantum Gravity is the description of the amplitude for the quantum 4-simplex that is used in the state sum partition function. We obtain the zonal spherical functions for the construction of the SO(4,R) invariant weight and associate them to the triangular faces of the 4-simplices.
