Abstract
We are indebted to the organizers of the conference and especially Professor Bruno Gruber for this opportunity to review recent progress in implementing the tensor operator calculus. This subject is fundamental for the symmetry approach to quantum physics, and-as is well-known-has extensive applications to nuclear structure physics, nuclear collective motion and quark models in particle physics, to name only a few of the more important examples.
