Programs for generating Clebsch–Gordan coefficients of SU(3) in SU(2) and SO(3) bases Original Research Article

Computer codes are developed to calculate Clebsch–Gordan coefficients of SU(3) in both SU(2)- and SO(3)-coupled bases. The efficiency of this code derives from the use of vector coherent state theory to evaluate the required coefficients directly without recursion relations. The approach extends to other compact semi-simple Lie groups. The codes are given in subroutine form so that users can incorporate the codes into other programs.
