Split the two dual factors into antisymmetric and symmetric tensors. The invariant Levi-Civita symbol identifies the antisymmetric pair with , giving after multiplying by the remaining triplet. On the symmetric part, contraction maps onto ; the equivariant splitting is . Its trace-free kernel has dimension and highest weight with Dynkin labels . The Weyl dimension formula gives dimension , so this is exactly the irreducible kernel. It is conjugate to the other fifteen-dimensional module with labels ; dimension alone does not distinguish the two.
