%0 Journal Article %T Invariants and reduced matrix elements associated with the Lie superalgebra gl(m|n) %A Mark D. Gould %A Phillip S. Isaac %A Jason L. Werry %J Mathematics %D 2012 %I arXiv %R 10.1063/1.4773573 %X We construct explicit formulae for the eigenvalues of certain invariants of the Lie superalgebra gl(m|n) using characteristic identities. We discuss how such eigenvalues are related to reduced Wigner coefficients and the reduced matrix elements of generators, and thus provide a first step to a new algebraic derivation of matrix element formulae for all generators of the algebra. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1211.2857v1
