We show that the In\"on\"u-Wigner contraction naturally associated to a reduction chain $\frak{s}\supset \frak{s}^{\prime}$ of semisimple Lie algebras induces a decomposition of the Casimir operators into homogeneous polynomials, the terms…
Many relevant applications of group theoretical methods to physical problems are related, in some manner, to classification schemes by means of symmetry groups. In these schemes, irreducible representations of a Lie group have to be…
Given a semidirect product $\frak{g}=\frak{s}\uplus\frak{r}$ of semisimple Lie algebras $\frak{s}$ and solvable algebras $\frak{r}$, we construct polynomial operators in the enveloping algebra $\mathcal{U}(\frak{g})$ of $\frak{g}$ that…
We obtain a criterion on the commutativity of polynomials in the enveloping algebra of a Lie algebra in terms of an involution condition with respect to the Berezin bracket. As an application, it is shown that the commutativity requirement…
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 briefly review a matrix based method to compute the Casimir operators of Lie algebras, mainly certain type of contractions of simple Lie algebras. The versatility of the method is illustrated by constructing matrices whose characteristic…
We prove that if $\frak{g}^{\prime}$ is a contraction of a Lie algebra $\frak{g}$ then the number of functionally independent invariants of $\frak{g}^{\prime}$ is at least that of $\frak{g}$. This allows to determine explicitly the number…
The decomposition problem of the enveloping algebra of a simple Lie algebra is reconsidered combining both the analytical and the algebraic approach, showing its relation with the internal labelling problem with respect to a nilpotent…
We introduce in this paper the contractions $\mathfrak{G}_c$ of $n$-Lie (or Filippov) algebras $\mathfrak{G}$ and show that they have a semidirect structure as their $n=2$ Lie algebra counterparts. As an example, we compute the non-trivial…
We prove that for any known Lie algebra $\frak{g}$ having none invariants for the coadjoint representation, the absence of invariants is equivalent to the existence of a left invariant exact symplectic structure on the corresponding Lie…
Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a vector space and $[,],[,]'$ be a pair of Lie brackets on $\mathfrak{g}$. By definition they are compatible if $[,]+[,]'$ is again a Lie bracket. Such pairs play important role in bihamiltonian and $r$-matrix…
The labelling of states of irreducible representations of GL(3) in an O(3) basis is well known to require the addition of a single O(3)-invariant operator, to the standard diagonalisable set of Casimir operators in the subgroup chain GL(3)…
Contractions are a procedure to construct a new Lie algebra out of a given one via a singular limit. Specifically, the \.In\"on\"u--Wigner construction starts with a Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ with Lie subalgebra $\mathfrak{h} \subseteq…
We discuss In\"on\"u-Wigner contractions of affine Kac-Moody algebras. We show that the Sugawara construction for the contracted affine algebra exists only for a fixed value of the level $k$, which is determined in terms of the dimension of…
Let $\mathfrak p$ be a proper parabolic subalgebra of a simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$. Writing $\mathfrak p=\mathfrak r\oplus \mathfrak m$, with $\mathfrak r$ being the Levi factor of $\mathfrak p$ and $\mathfrak m$ the nilpotent radical…
Contractions of Lie algebras are combined with the classical matrix method of Gel'fand to obtain matrix formulae for the Casimir operators of inhomogeneous Lie algebras. The method is presented for the inhomogeneous pseudo-unitary Lie…
The Casimir operators of a Lie algebra are in one-to-one correspondence with the symmetric invariant tensors of the algebra. There is an infinite family of Casimir operators whose members are expressible in terms of a number of primitive…
By means of contractions of Lie algebras, we obtain new classes of indecomposable quasi-classical Lie algebras that satisfy the Yang-Baxter equations in its reformulation in terms of triple products. These algebras are shown to arise…
We consider a proper parabolic subalgebra p of a simple Lie algebra g and the Inonu-Wigner contraction of p with respect to its decomposition into its standard Levi factor and its nilpotent radical : this is the Lie algebra which is…
We propose a notion of algebra of {\it twisted} chiral differential operators over algebraic manifolds with vanishing 1st Pontrjagin class. We show that such algebras possess families of modules depending on infinitely many complex…
