Abstract

The strong-coupling dynamics, with isospin SU(2)I as the given internal symmetry group, leads to the generation of a larger internal symmetry group SU(2)I1SU(2)I2 (I1+I2=I) for the hyperon isobar-pion coupling constants, the hyperon isobar series having isospin-spin I=J±12=0, 1, 2, , . In this connection we describe a "modified contraction" method for constructing the irreducible representations of the strong-coupling group G=[SU(2)ISU(2)J]×T9, which starts from the "uncontracted" group SU(2)SU(4) and provides a transparent formulation of the dynamical generation of extra symmetry for a class of irreducible representations of group G. One more method for constructing the representations of the group G is also described which starts from a knowledge of the irreducible representations of inhomogeneous Euclidean group in four dimensions.
