Abstract:

In the framework of the Schwinger boson representation for the su(2)-algebra, the closed form is derived for the total spin eigenstates which result from the coupling of n su(2)-spins. In order to demonstrate its usefulness, the orthogonal set for the so(5)-algebra, which is reduced to four su(2)-spin systems, is obtained.
