Wigner, Clebsch-Gordan, Racah, and Gaunt coefficients
Collection of functions for calculating Wigner 3j, 6j, 9j,
Clebsch-Gordan, Racah as well as Gaunt coefficients exactly, all
evaluating to a rational number times the square root of a rational
number [Rasch03]_.
Please see the description of the individual functions for further
details and examples.

Function calculates a list of precomputed factorials in order to

Parameters
==========
nn : integer
Highest factorial to be computed.
Returns

list of integers :
The list of precomputed factorials.
Examples

Calculate list of factorials::
sage: from sage.functions.wigner import _calc_factlist
sage: _calc_factlist(10)

def wigner_3j(j_1, j_2, j_3, m_1, m_2, m_3):
r"""
Calculate the Wigner 3j symbol `\operatorname{Wigner3j}(j_1,j_2,j_3,m_1,m_2,m_3)`.
Parameters
==========
j_1, j_2, j_3, m_1, m_2, m_3 :
Integer or half integer.
Returns
=======
Rational number times the square root of a rational number.
Examples
========
>>> from sympy.physics.wigner import wigner_3j
>>> wigner_3j(2, 6, 4, 0, 0, 0)
sqrt(715)/143
>>> wigner_3j(2, 6, 4, 0, 0, 1)
0
It is an error to have arguments that are not integer or half
integer values::
sage: wigner_3j(2.1, 6, 4, 0, 0, 0)
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
ValueError: j values must be integer or half integer
sage: wigner_3j(2, 6, 4, 1, 0, -1.1)
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
ValueError: m values must be integer or half integer
Notes
=====
The Wigner 3j symbol obeys the following symmetry rules:
- invariant under any permutation of the columns (with the
exception of a sign change where `J:=j_1+j_2+j_3`):
.. math::
\begin{aligned}
\operatorname{Wigner3j}(j_1,j_2,j_3,m_1,m_2,m_3)
&=\operatorname{Wigner3j}(j_3,j_1,j_2,m_3,m_1,m_2) \\
&=\operatorname{Wigner3j}(j_2,j_3,j_1,m_2,m_3,m_1) \\
&=(-1)^J \operatorname{Wigner3j}(j_3,j_2,j_1,m_3,m_2,m_1) \\
&=(-1)^J \operatorname{Wigner3j}(j_1,j_3,j_2,m_1,m_3,m_2) \\
&=(-1)^J \operatorname{Wigner3j}(j_2,j_1,j_3,m_2,m_1,m_3)
\end{aligned}
- invariant under space inflection, i.e.
.. math::
\operatorname{Wigner3j}(j_1,j_2,j_3,m_1,m_2,m_3)
=(-1)^J \operatorname{Wigner3j}(j_1,j_2,j_3,-m_1,-m_2,-m_3)
- symmetric with respect to the 72 additional symmetries based on
the work by [Regge58]_
- zero for `j_1`, `j_2`, `j_3` not fulfilling triangle relation
- zero for `m_1 + m_2 + m_3 \neq 0`
- zero for violating any one of the conditions
`j_1 \ge |m_1|`, `j_2 \ge |m_2|`, `j_3 \ge |m_3|`
Algorithm
=========
This function uses the algorithm of [Edmonds74]_ to calculate the
value of the 3j symbol exactly. Note that the formula contains
alternating sums over large factorials and is therefore unsuitable
for finite precision arithmetic and only useful for a computer
algebra system [Rasch03]_.

Calculate the real Gaunt coefficient.
Explanation
===========
The real Gaunt coefficient is defined as the integral over three
real spherical harmonics:
.. math::
\begin{aligned}
\operatorname{RealGaunt}(l_1,l_2,l_3,m_1,m_2,m_3)
&=\int Z^{m_1}_{l_1}(\Omega)
Z^{m_2}_{l_2}(\Omega) Z^{m_3}_{l_3}(\Omega) \,d\Omega \\
\end{aligned}
Alternatively, it can be defined in terms of the standard Gaunt
coefficient by relating the real spherical harmonics to the standard
spherical harmonics via a unitary transformation `U`, i.e.
`Z^{m}_{l}(\Omega)=\sum_{m'}U^{m}_{m'}Y^{m'}_{l}(\Omega)` [Homeier96]_.
The real Gaunt coefficient is then defined as
.. math::
\begin{aligned}
\operatorname{RealGaunt}(l_1,l_2,l_3,m_1,m_2,m_3)
&=\int Z^{m_1}_{l_1}(\Omega)

The unitary matrix `U` has components

Notes
=====
The real Gaunt coefficient inherits from the standard Gaunt coefficient,
the invariance under any permutation of the pairs `(l_i, m_i)` and the
requirement that the sum of the `l_i` be even to yield a non-zero value.
It also obeys the following symmetry rules:
- zero for `l_1`, `l_2`, `l_3` not fulfiling the condition
`l_1 \in \{l_{\text{max}}, l_{\text{max}}-2, \ldots, l_{\text{min}}\}`,
where `l_{\text{max}} = l_2+l_3`,
.. math::
\begin{aligned}
l_{\text{min}} = \begin{cases} \kappa(l_2, l_3, m_2, m_3) & \text{if}\,

and `\kappa(l_2, l_3, m_2, m_3) = \max{\big(|l_2-l_3|, \min{\big(|m_2+m_3|,
|m_2-m_3|\big)}\big)}`
- zero for an odd number of negative `m_i`
Algorithms
==========
This function uses the algorithms of [Homeier96]_ and [Rasch03]_ to
calculate the value of the real Gaunt coefficient exactly. Note that
the formula used in [Rasch03]_ contains alternating sums over large
factorials and is therefore unsuitable for finite precision arithmetic
and only useful for a computer algebra system [Rasch03]_. However, this
function can in principle use any algorithm that computes the Gaunt
coefficient, so it is suitable for finite precision arithmetic in so far
as the algorithm which computes the Gaunt coefficient is.

r"""
Returns dot product of rotational gradients of spherical harmonics.
Explanation
===========
This function returns the right hand side of the following expression:
.. math ::
\vec{R}Y{_j^{p}} \cdot \vec{R}Y{_l^{m}} = (-1)^{m+p}
\sum\limits_{k=|l-j|}^{l+j}Y{_k^{m+p}} * \alpha_{l,m,j,p,k} *
\frac{1}{2} (k^2-j^2-l^2+k-j-l)
Arguments
=========
j, p, l, m .... indices in spherical harmonics (expressions or integers)
theta, phi .... angle arguments in spherical harmonics
Example
=======
>>> from sympy import symbols
>>> from sympy.physics.wigner import dot_rot_grad_Ynm
>>> theta, phi = symbols("theta phi")
>>> dot_rot_grad_Ynm(3, 2, 2, 0, theta, phi).doit()

def wigner_d_small(J, beta):
"""Return the small Wigner d matrix for angular momentum J.
Explanation
===========
J : An integer, half-integer, or SymPy symbol for the total angular
momentum of the angular momentum space being rotated.
beta : A real number representing the Euler angle of rotation about
the so-called line of nodes. See [Edmonds74]_.
Returns
=======
A matrix representing the corresponding Euler angle rotation( in the basis
of eigenvectors of `J_z`).
.. math ::
\\mathcal{d}_{\\beta} = \\exp\\big( \\frac{i\\beta}{\\hbar} J_y\\big)
The components are calculated using the general form [Edmonds74]_,
equation 4.1.15.

>>> from sympy.physics.wigner import wigner_d_small
>>> half = 1/Integer(2)
