The representation theory of the symmetric group is beautifully related with the partition symbols called Young diagrams. G. de. B. Robinson gave the decomposition rule of tensor products of the representations of the symmetric groups, ie, an algorithm to calculate the multiplicities of the irreducible constituents of tensor product representation of two arbitrary irreducible representations of a symmetric group. The representation theory of the other classical Weyl groups were studied by Specht, Mayer and others, which can be described by means of ‘pairs of partitions. Mayer gave a smart construction of the irreducible representations using Weyl subgroups. In this paper we shall give the decomposition rules of tensor products of the representations of the classical Weyl groups. We usually use character instead of representation itself. Our basic method is the following. Let W be a classical Weyl group. First we choose a family of subgroups called “nice” subgroups, and also choose some characters of the “nice” subgroups which we call the “handy” characters of the “nice” subgroups. Next we show that the family of “nice” subgroups and the “handy” characters satisfy the followng three conditions.
