    su\((N)\) tensor product multiplicities and virtual Berenstein-Zelevinsky triangles (English)
    0 references
    The generalized Berenstein-Zelevinsky (BZ) triangles are considered. The authors have proposed a new and explicit way of expressing the tensor product multiplicities of \(\text{su}(N)\). By virtue of virtual BZ triangles a polyhedral combinatorial expression for the \(\text{su}(N)\) tensor product multiplicities is obtained. It admits a simple measurement of the convex polytope volume in terms of a multiple sum formula. The obtained results can be applied to the computation of fusion rules in conformal field theory with affine Lie group symmetry.
