Abstract

Let LL be a Lie algebra with its enveloping algebra U(L)U(L) over a field. In this paper we survey results concerning the isomorphism problem for enveloping algebras: given another Lie algebra HH for which U(L)U(L) and U(H)U(H) are isomorphic as associative algebras, can we deduce that LL and HH are isomorphic Lie algebras? Over a field of positive characteristic we consider a similar problem for restricted Lie algebras, that is, given restricted Lie algebras LL and HH for which their restricted enveloping algebras are isomorphic as algebras, can we deduce that LL and HH are isomorphic?
