Extract

1. In a recent paper Professor G. Temple has given a matrix representation of the Clebsch-Aronhold symbols by means of which a homogeneous form of degree m in the n variables x1 …, xn may be written (a1x1 + … + anxn)m. The present paper is concerned with an extension of Temple's method to include Weitzenböck's complex symbols which have proved so potent in the treatment of linear and higher complexes. A slight rearrangement of Temple's matrices is suggested which displays more clearly the nature of the representation.
