Discrete quantum gravity: the Lorentz invariant weight for the Barrett-Crane model

Abstract

In a recent paper [1] we have constructed the spin and tensor representations of SO(4) from which the invariant weight can be derived for the Barrett-Crane model in quantum gravity. By analogy with the SO(4) group, we present the complexified Clebsch-Gordan coefficients in order to construct the Biedenharn-Dolginov function for the SO(3,1) group and the spherical function as the Lorentz invariant weight of the model.
