Reference for irreducible representations of $\mathcal{O}(n)\ni O\mapsto O^{\otimes k}$
This MO answer cites the Goodman-Wallach book to affirm that:
$$\mathrm{Sym}^k\left(\mathbb{R}^n\right)=\mathcal{H}^k\oplus q\mathcal{H}^{k-2}\oplus q^2\mathcal{H}^{k-4}\oplus\cdots$$

Principal orbit and the generic stabilizer of SO(2n)xSO(2n)
Let $SO(2n)$ denote the special orthogonal group of $2n\times 2n$ matrices over the complex numbers.
Consider the action of $SO(2n)\times SO(2n)$ on the set of $2n\times 2n$ matrices : $ADB^{T}$, ...
