Decomposition into irreducible components of a representation of $Spin(9)$

It is well known that the group $Spin(9)$ acts linearly on the vector space $\mathbb{R}^{16}$ (see for example "Spinors and calibrations" by R. Harvey). Consider the induced representation of $Spin(9)...

A representation of Spin(9,1)

Let $Spin(9,1)$ denote the universal (double) cover of $SO(9,1)$. $Spin(9,1)$ acts linearly on $\mathbb{R}^{16}$ (see e.g. p.29 here https://arxiv.org/pdf/math/0105155v4.pdf ). Consider the induced ...
