This is a survey paper presenting the history and both old and new results related to Kostant's problem. This problem asks for which modules over a semi-simple finite dimensional complex Lie algebra, the universal enveloping algebra…

Let g be a semisimple Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic 0. Let V be a simple finite-dimensional g-module and let y\in V be a highest weight vector. It is a classical result of B. Kostant that the algebra of…

We use Arkhipov's twisting functors to show that the universal enveloping algebra of a semi-simple complex finite-dimensional Lie algebra surjects onto the space of ad-finite endomorphisms of the simple highest weight module $L(\lambda)$,…

A fundamental result in representation theory is Kostant's theorem which describes the algebra of polynomials on a reductive Lie algebra as a module over its invariants. We prove a quantum analogue of this theorem for the general linear…

Recently, E.Feigin introduced a very interesting contraction $\mathfrak q$ of a semisimple Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$ (see arXiv:1007.0646 and arXiv:1101.1898). We prove that these non-reductive Lie algebras retain good invariant-theoretic…

To each complex semisimple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ decorated with appropriate data, one may associate two completely integrable systems. One is the well-studied Kostant-Toda lattice, while the second is an integrable system defined on…

We study Harish-Chandra representations of Yangian for gl(2). We prove an analogue of Kostant theorem showing that resterited Yangians for gl(2) are free modules over certain maximal commutative subalgebras. We also study the categories of…

For every involution $\mathbf{w}$ of the symmetric group $S_n$ we establish, in terms ofa special canonical quotient of the dominant Verma module associated with $\mathbf{w}$, an effective criterion, which allows us to verify whether the…

Let $\frak g$ be a finite dimensional complex semi-simple Lie algebra with Weyl group $W$ and simple reflections $S$. For $I\subseteq S$ let $\frak g_I$ be the corresponding semi-simple subalgebra of $\frak g$. Denote by $W_I$ the Weyl…

A classical theorem of Veldkamp describes the center of an enveloping algebra of a Lie algebra of a semi-simple algebraic group in characteristic $p.$ We generalize this result to a class of Lie algebras with a property that they arise as…

We study the Yangian $Y_n$ associated to the general linear Lie algebra $\mathfrak{gl}_n$ over a field of positive characteristic, as well as its shifted analog $Y_n(\sigma)$. Our main result gives a description of the centre of…

There are several interesting filtrations on the Cartan subalgebra of a complex simple Lie algebra coming from very different contexts: one is the principal filtration coming from the Langlands dual, one is coming from the Clifford algebra…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a complex semisimple Lie algebra with associated Yangian $Y_\hbar\mathfrak{g}$. In the mid-1990s, Khoroshkin and Tolstoy formulated a conjecture which asserts that the algebra $\mathrm{D}Y_\hbar\mathfrak{g}$ obtained…

Take the matrix Lie superalgebra $gl_{N|N}$ with the standard generators $E_{ij}$ where $i,j=-N,...,-1,1,...,N$. Define an involutive automorphism of $gl_{N|N}$ by sending $E_{ij}$ to $E_{-i,-j}$. Then the corresponding twisted subalgebra…

We study the structure of quantized enveloping algebras called twisted Yangians, which are naturally associated with the B, C, and D series of the classical Lie algebras. We obtain an explicit formula for the formal series (the Sklyanin…

We describe the centers of the universal enveloping algebras of nilpotent Lie algebras of dimension at most six over fields of prime characteristic. If the characteristic is not smaller than the nilpontency class, then the center is the…

The universal enveloping algebra $U(\mathfrak{g} )$ of a current (super)algebra or loop (super)algebra $\mathfrak{g} $ is considered over an algebraically closed field $\mathbb{K} $ with characteristic $p\ge 0$. This paper focuses on the…

Olshanski's centralizer construction provides a realization of the Yangian for the Lie algebra gl(n) as a subalgebra in the projective limit of a chain of centralizers in the universal enveloping algebras. We give a modified version of this…

In this paper we study finite W-algebras for basic classical superalgebras and Q(n) associated to the regular even nilpotent coadjoint orbits. We prove that this algebra satisfies the Amitsur-Levitzki identity and therefore all its…

Let g be a Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p>0 and let U(g) be the universal enveloping algebra of g. We prove in this paper that for g=gl_n and g=sl_n the centre of U(g) is a unique factorisation domain and…
