Review text

Summary: Using elementary techniques, an algorithmic procedure to construct skew-symmetric matrices realizing the real irreducible representations of \(\mathfrak{so}(3)\) is developed. We further give a simple criterion that enables one to deduce the decomposition of an arbitrary real representation \(R\) of \(\mathfrak{so}(3)\) into real irreducible components from the characteristic polynomial of an arbitrary representation matrix.
