Abstract

For g\mathfrak{g} a simple Lie algebra and GG its adjoint group, the Chevalley map and work of Coxeter gives a concrete description of the algebra of GG-invariant polynomials on g\mathfrak{g} in terms of traces over various representations. Here we provide an extension of this description to GG-invariant tensors on g\mathfrak{g}, although restricted to only providing generators and only for the classical Lie algebras.
