We definitively solve the old problem of finding a minimal integrity basis of polynomial invariants of the fourth-order elasticity tensorC. DecomposingCinto its SO(3)-irreducible components we reduce this problem to finding joint invariants of a triplet (a,b,D), whereaandbare second-order harmonic tensors, andDis a fourth-order harmonic tensor. Combining theorems of classical invariant theory and formal computations, a minimal integrity basis of 297 polynomial invariants for the elasticity tensor is obtained for the first time.
