After the change of variables \(\Delta_ i=\gamma_ i-\delta_ i\) and \(x_{i,i+1}=\delta_ i-\delta_{i+1}\) it is shown that the invariant polynomials \(_{\mu}G_ q^{(n)}(\quad,\Delta_ i,;,x_{i,i+1},\quad)\) characterizing certain U(n) tensor operators [\textit{L. Biedenharn}, \textit{W. Holman III} and \textit{S. Milne}, Adv. Appl. Math. 1, 390-472 (1980; Zbl 0457.33010)] become an integral linear combination of products of Schur functions \(S_{\alpha}(\quad,\gamma_ i,\quad)S_{\beta}(\quad,\delta_ i,\quad)\) in the variables \(\{\gamma_ 1,...,\gamma_ n\}\) and \(\{\delta_ 1,...,\delta_ n\}\), respectively. A key result obtained is that if n is sufficiently large then the representation of \(_{\mu}G_ q^{(n)}\) in terms of the Schur functions \(S_{\alpha}(,\gamma_ i,)\) and \(S_{\beta}(,\delta_ i,)\) stabilizes, i.e. becomes independent of n. By making use of basic properties of Schur functions such as the Littlewood-Richardson rule, several remarkable new symmetries (and a ''stabilization'' theorem) are proved for the yet more general bisymmetric polynomials \(^ m_{\mu}G_ q^{(n)}(\gamma_ 1,...,\gamma_ n;\delta_ 1,...,\delta_ m).\) Also, an explicit formula is given for both \({}^ m_{\mu}G_ 1^{(n)}\) and \({}_ 1G_ 2^{(n)}\). This paper should be read in conjuction with the one reviewed below where many results are amplified.
