MatrixRepSU3 returns a specific matrix representation of the group SU(3) with highest weight as given via non-optional argument. The method returns a List of eight matrices.

This method admits no options.

Arguments

MatrixRepSU3 has the following (non-optional) arguments:

Argument Description
hightest_weight highest_weight is the highest weight of the matrix representation. It is represented as List of two integers.
TODO: name of the used highest-weight numbering scheme?

Example

<< BProbe`

(* the following method returns a 3-dimensional representation, *)
(* namely a list of Gellmann matrices in the usual order*)
(* up to a factor of 2 *)
MatrixRepSU3[{1,0}]

(* the following returns the trivial representation *)
MatrixRepSU2[{0,0}]
