This paper deals with the striking fact that there is an essentially canonical path from the $i$-th Lie algebra cohomology cocycle, $i=1,2,... l$, of a simple compact Lie algebra $\g$ of rank $l$ to the definition of its primitive Casimir…

We propose a systematic procedure to construct polynomial algebras from intermediate Casimir invariants arising from (semisimple or non-semisimple) Lie algebras $\mathfrak{g}$. In this approach, we deal with explicit polynomials in the…

A generalization $\mathfrak{Gal}_{\ell}(p,q)$ of the conformal Galilei algebra $\mathfrak{g}_{\ell}(d)$ with Levi subalgebra isomorphic to $\mathfrak{sl}(2,\mathbb{R})\oplus\mathfrak{so}(p,q)$ is introduced and a virtual copy of the latter…

For each quantum superalgebra $U_q[osp(m|n)]$ with $m>2$, an infinite family of Casimir invariants is constructed. This is achieved by using an explicit form for the Lax operator. The eigenvalue of each Casimir invariant on an arbitrary…

In this paper, we define generalized Casimir operators for a loop contragredient Lie superalgebra and prove that they commute with the underlying Lie superalgebra. These operators have applications in the decomposition of tensor product…

We present a universal formula for the dimension of the Cartan powers of the adjoint representation of a complex simple Lie algebra (i.e., a universal formula for the Hilbert functions of homogeneous complex contact manifolds), as well as…

There has been proposed a new method of the constructing of the basic functions for spaces of tensor representations of the Lie groups with the help of the generalized Casimir operator. In the definition of the operator there were used the…

A full set of (higher order) Casimir invariants for the Lie algebra $gl(\infty )$ is constructed and shown to be well defined in the category $O_{FS}$ generated by the highest weight (unitarizable) irreducible representations with only a…

We present the eigenvalues of the Casimir invariants for the type I quantum superalgebras on any irreducible highest weight module.

Maass forms for $SL(n,\mathbb{Z})$ are defined to be eigenfunctions of the Casimir operators $\mathcal{D}_{m,n}$ of orders $1 \leq m \leq n$ for $GL(n,\mathbb{R})$. For any $1 \leq m \leq n$ and Maass form $\phi$ for $SL(n,\mathbb{Z})$, we…

In this paper, we obtain a new abstract formula relating eigenvalues of a self-adjoint operator to two families of symmetric and skew-symmetric operators and their commutators. This formula generalizes earlier ones obtained by Harrell,…

In previous work, we introduced an algorithm that utilises differential operator realisations to find polynomial Casimir operators of Lie algebras. In this article we build on this work by applying the algorithm to several classes of finite…

Exploiting particular features of classical groups, simple constructions are given for the irreducible constituents of the tensor square of the adjoint modules and the leading terms in higher tensor powers. This provides an independent…

We present the most general polynomial Lie algebra generated by a second order integral of motion and one of order M, construct the Casimir operator, and show how the Jacobi identity provides the existence of a realization in terms of…

We show that the quantum Casimir operators of the quantum linear group constructed in early work of Bracken, Gould and Zhang together with one extra central element generate the entire center of $\Uq$. As a by product of the proof, we…

Let G be symmetrizable Kac-Moody Lie algebra. In this paper we describe a new class of central operators generalising the Casimir operator. We also prove some properties of these operators and show that these operators move highest weight…

We show that a Lie algebra having a nilpotent radical has a fundamental set of invariants consisting of Casimir operators. We give a different proof of this fact in the special and well-known case where the radical is abelian.

This survey paper is an exposition of old and recent results of Kostant and al. on the relationships between the exterior algebra of a simple Lie algebra and the action of the Casimir operator on it. Our exposition relies on u-cohomology…

Let $(V,\gamma )$ be a real finite dimensional vector space with a symmetric bilinear form $\gamma $ whose kernel is spanned by a nonzero vector. The set of invertible real linear mappings of $(V, \gamma )$ into itself forms a Lie group…
