Coupling coefficients of SO(n) and integrals over triplets of Jacobi and Gegenbauer polynomials
The expressions of the coupling coefficients (3j-symbols) for the most
degenerate (symmetric) representations of the orthogonal groups SO(n) in a
canonical basis (with SO(n) restricted to SO(n-1)) and different semicanonical
or tree bases [with SO(n) restricted to SO(n'})\times SO(n''), n'+n''=n] are
considered, respectively, in context of the integrals involving triplets of the
Gegenbauer and the Jacobi polynomials. Since the directly derived
triple-hypergeometric series do not reveal the apparent triangle conditions of
the 3j-symbols, they are rearranged, using their relation with the
semistretched isofactors of the second kind for the complementary chain
Sp(4)\supset SU(2)\times SU(2) and analogy with the stretched 9j coefficients
of SU(2), into formulae with more rich limits for summation intervals and
obvious triangle conditions. The isofactors of class-one representations of the
orthogonal groups or class-two representations of the unitary groups (and, of
course, the related integrals involving triplets of the Gegenbauer and the
Jacobi polynomials) turn into the double sums in the cases of the canonical
SO(n)\supset SO(n-1) or U(n)\supset U(n-1) and semicanonical SO(n)\supset
SO(n-2)\times SO(2) chains, as well as into the_4F_3(1) series under more
specific conditions. Some ambiguities of the phase choice of the complementary
group approach are adjusted, as well as the problems with alternating sign
parameter of SO(2) representations in the SO(3)\supset SO(2) and SO(n)\supset
SO(n-2)\times SO(2) chains.Comment: 26 pages, corrections of (3.6c) and (3.12); elementary proof of

Holonomic functions of several complex variables and singularities of anisotropic Ising n-fold integrals
Lattice statistical mechanics, often provides a natural (holonomic) framework
to perform singularity analysis with several complex variables that would, in a
general mathematical framework, be too complex, or could not be defined.
Considering several Picard-Fuchs systems of two-variables "above" Calabi-Yau
ODEs, associated with double hypergeometric series, we show that holonomic
functions are actually a good framework for actually finding the singular
manifolds. We, then, analyse the singular algebraic varieties of the n-fold
integrals , corresponding to the decomposition of the magnetic
susceptibility of the anisotropic square Ising model. We revisit a set of
Nickelian singularities that turns out to be a two-parameter family of elliptic
curves. We then find a first set of non-Nickelian singularities for and , that also turns out to be rational or ellipic
curves. We underline the fact that these singular curves depend on the
anisotropy of the Ising model. We address, from a birational viewpoint, the
emergence of families of elliptic curves, and of Calabi-Yau manifolds on such
problems. We discuss the accumulation of these singular curves for the
non-holonomic anisotropic full susceptibility.Comment: 36 page
