An Auxiliary 'Differential Measure' for SU(3)

A 'differential measure' is used to cast our calculus for the group $SU(3)$ into a form similar to Schwinger's boson operator calculus for the group $SU(2)$. It is then applied to compute (i) the inner product between the basis states and (ii) an algebraic formula for the Clebsch-Gordan coefficients. These were obtained earlier by us using Gaussian integration techniques.
