Proposition 43

  1. aBesides parity superselection rule P we have translation-invariance T, twisted reflection symmetry R, and particle-number conservation N.
  2. bThe orthogonal algebra is represented as direct sum of two equal copies given as irreducible blocks of dimension 2 d 1 ; the system algebra so(2d) itself was determined already, e.g., in [38].
