Conjugate fundamental spinor of SU(2)

ID: conjugate-fundamental-spinor-of-su-2

For the defining SU(2) action , the conjugate row transforms by . Thus is invariant. The alternating invariant tensor satisfies . Choose its inverse ; then . Raising the conjugate index, , gives another defining spinor. The resulting antilinear intertwiner squares to , so the defining representation is a pseudoreal representation.
