The use of the factorized form of the extremal projection operator for the U(3) algebra allows one to prove the factorization of normalization Clebsch–Gordan coefficients [Formula: see text] (H is the highest weight) into the product of three simple SU(2) normalization Clebsch–Gordan coefficients in multiplicity free cases. A similar conclusion is conjectured to be valid for arbitrary simple Lie algebras (superalgebras) and their q analogs.

Berenshtein and Zelevinskii provided an exhaustive list of pairs of weights $(\lambda,\mu)$ of simple Lie algebras $\mathfrak{g}$ (up to Dynkin diagram isomorphism) for which the multiplicity of the weight $\mu$ in the representation of $\mathfrak{g}$ with highest weight $\lambda$ is equal to one. Using Kostant's weight multiplicity formula we describe and enumerate the contributing terms to the multiplicity for subsets of these pairs of weights and show that, in these cases, the cardinality of these contributing sets is enumerated by (multiples of) Fibonacci numbers. We conclude by using these results to compute the associated $q$-multiplicity for the pairs of weights considered, and conjecture that in all cases the $q$-multiplicity of such pairs of weights is given by a power of $q$.

We consider three-point couplings in simple Lie algebras — singlets in triple tensor products of their integrable highest weight representations. A coupling can be expressed as a linear combination of products of finitely many elementary couplings. This carries over to affine fusion, the fusion of Wess–Zumino–Witten conformal field theories, where the expressions are in terms of elementary fusions. In the case of su(4) it has been observed that there is a purely affine elementary fusion, i.e. an elementary fusion that is not an elementary coupling. In this paper we show by construction that there is at least one purely affine elementary fusion associated to every su (N > 3).

AbstractThe exceptional simple Lie algebras of types E7 and E8 are endowed with optimal $\mathsf{SL}_2^n$ -structures, and are thus described in terms of the corresponding coordinate algebras. These are nonassociative algebras which much resemble the so-called code algebras.
