✦ Synopsis
This is the third and final article in a series directed toward the Ž .
Ž . evaluation of the U 2 n generator matrix elements MEs in a multishell spinrorbit basis. Such a basis is required for many-electron systems possessing a partitioned orbital space and where spin-dependence is important. The approach taken is based on the Ž . transformation properties of the U 2 n generators as an adjoint tensor operator of Ž . Ž . U n = U 2 and application of the Wigner᎐Eckart theorem. A complete set of adjoint Ž coupling coefficients for the two-shell composite Gelfand᎐Paldus basis which is . appropriate to the many-electron problem were obtained in the first and second articles of this series. In the first article we defined zero-shift coupling coefficients. These are proportional to the corresponding two-shell del-operator matrix elements. See P. J. Burton Ž .
