We consider the Casimir Invariants related to some a special kind of Lie-algebra extensions, called universal extensions. We show that these invariants can be studied using the equivalence between the universal extensions and the…
Let g be a finite dimensional Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic zero. We collect some general results on the Poisson center of S(g), including some simple criteria regarding its polynomiality, and also on…

It is given a way of computing Casimir eigenvalues for Weyl orbits as well as for irreducible representations of Lie algebras. A kappa(s) number of polinomials which depend on rank N are obtained explicitly for A_N Casimir operators of…
Of four types of Kaplansky algebras, type-2 and type-4 algebras have previously unobserved $\mathbb{Z}/2$-gradings: nonlinear in roots. A method assigning a simple Lie superalgebra to every $\mathbb{Z}/2$-graded simple Lie algebra in…
We study some algebraic properties of the 'vector supersymmetry' (VSUSY) algebra, a graded extension of the four-dimensional Poincare' algebra with two odd generators, a vector and a scalar, and two central charges. The anticommutator…
Among simple Z-graded Lie superalgebras of polynomial growth, there are several which have no Cartan matrix but, nevertheless, have a quadratic even Casimir element C_{2}: these are the Lie superalgebra k^L(1|6) of vector fields on the…
Over $\mathbb{C}$, Montgomery superized Herstein's construction of simple Lie algebras from finite-dimensional associative algebras, found obstructions to the procedure and applied it to $\mathbb{Z}/2$-graded associative algebra of…

We describe, for arbitrary dimensions the construction of a covariant and supersymmetric constraint for the massless Super Poincare' algebra and we show that the constraint fixes uniquely the representation of the algebra. For the case of…
In this short note we study the center of the universal enveloping algebra of the strange Lie superalgebra Q(N). We obtain an analogue of the well known Perelomov-Popov formula (1968) for central elements of this algebra - an expression of…
Starting from a purely algebraic procedure based on the commutant of a subalgebra in the universal enveloping algebra of a given Lie algebra, the notion of algebraic Hamiltonians and the constants of the motion generating a polynomial…
Let $q$ be a scalar that is not a root of unity. We show that any polynomial in the Casimir element of the Fairlie-Odesskii algebra $U_q'(\mathfrak{so}_3)$ cannot be expressed in terms of only Lie algebra operations performed on the…
It is shown that for inhomogeneous Lie algebras $\frak{g}=\frak{s}\overrightarrow{\oplus}_{\Lambda}(\dim \Lambda)L_{1}$ satisfying the condition $\mathcal{N}(\frak{g})=1$, the only Casimir operator can be explicitly constructed from the…
We consider a Borel subalgebra $\fg$ of the general linear algebra and its subalgebra $\BB$ which is a Borel subalgebra of the special linear algebra, over arbitrary field. Let $\cL\in\{\fg, \BB\}$. We establish here explicit realizations…
We define on the universal enveloping superalgebra of osp(1|2n) a nonstandard adjoint action, endowing it with a module structure. This allows, in particular, to construct a bosonic operator which anticommutes with all the fermionic…
In this paper, we derive characteristic identities for the split Casimir operator of the Lie algebra $so(2r)$ in tensor products of spinor representations of the same and opposite chiralities. Using these identities, we explicitly construct…
