Abstract: | A explicit expression for the unitary group Clebsch–Gordan coefficients, which couple two fully antisymmetric single-column states into the two-column Gel'fand–Tsetlin states, is given in terms of isoscalar factors for the canonical subgroup chain U(n) ? U(n – 1) ? …? ? U(1). The isoscalar factors are expressed through the step numbers labeling canonical basis states and enable a straightforward construction of Gel'fand–Tsetlin states in the Clifford algebra unitary group approach, without the use of the tables for the symmetric group outer-product reduction coefficients. |
