We construct characteristic identities for the split (polarized) Casimir operators of the simple Lie algebras in defining (minimal fundamental) and adjoint representations. By means of these characteristic identities, for all simple Lie…
We constructed characteristic identities for the 3-split (polarized) Casimir operators of simple Lie algebras in the adjoint representations $\mathsf{ad}$ and deduced a certain class of subrepresentations in $\mathsf{ad}^{\otimes 3}$. The…
Explicit formulae for the projectors onto invariant subspaces of the $\operatorname{ad}^{\otimes 2}$ representation of the Lie algebras $so(N)$ and $sp(2r)$ have been found by means of the split Casimir operator. These projectors have also…
We find the characteristic identities for the split Casimir operator in the defining and adjoint representations of the $osp(M|N)$ and $s\ell(M|N)$ Lie superalgebras. These identities are used to build the projectors onto invariant…
We obtain a uniform decomposition into Casimir eigenspaces (most of which are irreducible) of the fourth power of the adjoint representation $\mathfrak{g}^{\otimes 4}$ for all simple Lie algebras. We present universal, in Vogel's sense,…
For various series of complex semi-simple Lie algebras $\fg (t)$ equipped with irreducible representations $V(t)$, we decompose the tensor powers of $V(t)$ into irreducible factors in a uniform manner, using a tool we call {\it diagram…
The present thesis represents developments in two main directions related to the simple Lie algebras. The first one is devoted to the representation theory of the simple Lie algebras. Specifically, we present recent results, which include…
We present the universal, in Vogel's sense, expression for the quantum dimension of Cartan product of an arbitrary number of adjoint and $X_2$ representations of simple Lie algebras. The same formula mysteriously gives quantum dimensions of…
For two different natural definitions of Casimir operators for simple Lie algebras we show that their eigenvalues in the adjoint representation can be expressed polynomially in the universal Vogel's parameters $\alpha, \beta, \gamma$ and…
This paper is a summary of discussions at the recent ITEP-JINR-YerPhI workshop on Vogel theory in Dubna. We consider relation between Vogel divisor(s) and the old Dynkin classification of simple Lie algebras. We consider application to knot…
In accordance with P. Vogel, a set of algebra structures in Chern-Simons theory can be made universal, independent of a particular family of simple Lie algebras. In particular, this means that various quantities in the adjoint…
We examine unitary and nonunitary representations of the Heisenberg-Weyl Lie algebra $\mathfrak{hw}_n$, with particular emphasis on tensor products of unitary representations and on indecomposable nonunitary representations. In the unitary…
In his study of finite (Vassiliev's) knot invariants,Vogel introduced the so-called universal parameters, belonging to the projective plane, which particularly parameterize the simple Lie algebras by the Vogel's table. Subsequently a number…
We define global and local Weyl modules for Lie superalgebras of the form $\mathfrak{g} \otimes A$, where $A$ is an associative commutative unital $\mathbb{C}$-algebra and $\mathfrak{g}$ is a basic Lie superalgebra or $\mathfrak{sl}(n,n)$,…
For any semisimple real Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}_\mathbb{R}$, we classify the representations of $\mathfrak{g}_\mathbb{R}$ that have at least one nonzero vector on which the centralizer of a Cartan subspace, also known as the centralizer…
The generalized Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials for the finite dimensional irreducible representations of the general linear superalgebra are computed explicitly. Using the result we establish a one to one correspondence between the set of…
The uniformity, for the family of exceptional Lie algebras g, of the decompositions of the powers of their adjoint representations is well-known now for powers up to the fourth. The paper describes an extension of this uniformity for the…
In his 1999 preprint "Universal Lie Algebra", P. Vogel put forward a hypothesis on the existence of a universal Lie algebra. Although this hypothesis remains open, it is known that many quantities in Lie theory admit universal descriptions.…
We conjecture the connection between $su$ and $so$ members of universal, in Vogel's sense, multiplets. The key element is the notion of the {\it vertical componentwise sum} $\oplus_v$ of Young diagrams. Representations in the decomposition…
