Abstract
Let be a complex semisimple Lie algebra with adjoint group . Suppose that is an involutive automorphism of . Then induces uniquely an involution of also denoted by , let be a subgroup of -fixed points. Consider a direct decomposition of into eigenspaces for . Then is a -module. Denote by any maximal abelian ad-diagonalizable subalgebra. Consider the ``baby Weyl group'' . Let be a restriction map of algebras of invariants. Then the famous Chevalley restriction theorem states that is an isomorphism. The aim of this paper is prove the following Theorem. The restriction map is surjective.
