Abstract
A convenient parameterization for finite transformations of SU(n) is developed which explicitly exhibits the special unitary subgroups. This is also used to parameterize the defining space. Higher-dimensional representations are discussed. The question of which representations carry the trivial representation of SU(n − 1) is considered, as well as the parameterization of these states. Application is made to the transformations and basis states of SU(3).Keywords
