S_4-symmetry of 6j-symbols and Frobenius-Schur indicators in rigid monoidal C^*-categories
arXiv:physics/9803038 · doi:10.1063/1.532778
Abstract
We show that a left-rigid monoidal C^*-category with irreducible monoidal unit is also a sovereign and spherical category. Defining a Frobenius-Schur type indicator we obtain selection rules for the fusion coefficients of irreducible objects. As a main result we prove S_4-invariance of 6j-symbols in such a category.
