We compute the invariants so of Weyl groups in mod 2 Milnor K-theory and more general cycle modules, which are annihilated by 2. Over a base field of characteristic coprime to the group order, the invariants decompose as direct sums of the…

We give a description of the cohomological invariants mod 2 of a Weyl group G in terms of the involution classes of G.

In this paper, we generalize Serre's splitting theorem for cohomological invariants of the symmetric group to finite Coxeter groups, provided that the ground field has characteristic zero. We then use this principle to determine all the…

In this note, we show the polynomiality of the ring of invariants with respect to the Weyl group of type $A_{2l}^{(2)}$.

We describe the Witt invariants of a Weyl group over a field $k_0$ by giving generators for the $W(k_0)$-module of Witt invariants, under the assumption that the characteristic of $k_0$ does not divide the order of the group. For the Weyl…

We calculate the Weyl group invariants with respect to a maximal torus of the exceptional Lie group $E_6$.

We determine the cohomological invariants and the Witt invariants of the alternating group $A_n$.

For each subgroup of GL_2(F_p) or order divisible by p, generated by (pseudo-)reflections, we compute the ideals of stable and generalized invariants. These groups and these ideals are related to the cohomology of compact Lie groups,…

We consider the finite Weyl groups of classical type -- $W(A_{r})$ for $r \geq 1$, $W(B_{r}) = W(C_{r})$ for $r \geq 2$, and $W(D_{r})$ for $r \geq 4$ -- as supergroups in which the reflections are of odd superdegree. Viewing the…

We define a family of universal finite-dimensional highest weight modules for affine Lie algebras, we call these Weyl modules. We conjecture that these are the classical limits of the irreducible finite--dimensional representations of the…

First and second fundamental theorems are given for polynomial invariants of a class of pseudo-reflection groups (including the Weyl groups of type $B_n$), under the assumption that the order of the group is invertible in the base field.…

In this paper, we prove that the ring of polynomial invariants of the Weyl group for an indecomposable and indefinite Kac-Moody Lie algebra is generated by invariant symmetric bilinear form or is trivial depending on $A$ is symmetrizable or…

For every absolutely irreducible orthogonal representation of a twisted form of SL2 over a field of characteristic zero, we compute the "unique" symmetric bilinear form that is invariant under the group action. We also prove the analogous…

We investigate the class of root systems $R$ obtained by extending an $A_1$-type irreducible root system by a free abelian group $G$. In this context there is a Weyl group $W$ and a group $U$ with the presentation by conjugation. Both…

We find the generators of the fields of invariants of the coadjoint action of the unitriangular group on the basic varieties and basic cells. It is proved that the transcendental degree of the field of invariants on a basic cell coincides…

Classical invariant theory of a complex reflection group $W$ highlights three beautiful structures: -- the $W$-invariant polynomials constitute a polynomial algebra, over which -- the $W$-invariant differential forms with polynomial…

In this paper, we will compute the characteristic polynomials for finite dimensional representations of classical complex Lie algebras and the exceptional Lie algebra of type G2, which can be obtained through the orbits of integral weights…

We provide the full classification, in arbitrary even and odd dimensions, of global conformal invariants, i.e., scalar densities in the spacetime metric and its derivatives that are invariant, possibly up to a total derivative, under local…

We solve the noncommutative Noether's problem for the reflection groups by showing that the skew field of the invariants of the Weyl algebra under the action of any reection group is a Weyl field, that is isomorphic to a skew field of some…

We show that the space of invariants for the Weil representation for discriminant groups which contain self-dual isotropic subgroups is spanned by the characteristic functions of the self-dual isotropic subgroups. As an application, we…
