In the context of group theory and representation theory, an **irreducible representation** is a representation of a group that cannot be decomposed into simpler representations. More formally, given a group \( G \) and a vector space \( V \), a representation of \( G \) on \( V \) is a homomorphism from \( G \) to the group of linear transformations of \( V \).
