Finite dimensional Lie algebra with non-degenerate invariant bilinear forms $\Omega_{ab}$
Firstly, my apology to MO experts that I am in a more science/physics background (a PhD). So please feel free refine/modify/comment my language if I have different math accents than yours. From ...

The existence of a finite dimensional Lie algebra with a given symmetric invariant metric
The question is motivated by a more broad perspective in another MO post and here, but here we would like to understand a specific case (our question potentially connects to / is motivated b Quantum ...

Polynomial invariants of the exceptional Weyl groups
Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a simple complex Lie algebra, and let $\mathfrak{h} \subset \mathfrak{g}$ be a fixed Cartan subalgebra. Let $W$ be the Weyl group associated to $\mathfrak{g}$. Let $S(\mathfrak{h}...

About the map $S(\mathfrak{g}^ * )^G\rightarrow S(\mathfrak{h}^ * )^H$ for $H < G$
Let $G$ be a compact connected semisimple Lie group, $\mathfrak{g}$ be its complexified Lie algebra and $\mathfrak{g}^*$ its complex dual space. We can form the symmetric algebra $S(\mathfrak{g}^ * ) $...

Casimir operators of a given Lie Algebra
I am a Physicist, so let me apologize in advance for some possible imprecisions.
I'm working on a 10-dimensional Lie Algebra. Each element of the algebra represents a quantum mechanical operator, and ...

Characterization of the weight orbit in the projective space via second order Casimir.
This is the spin-off of the question I previously asked.
First, let me remind you some notation from that question:
$G_0$ - compact, simply connected Lie group giving rise (by complexification) ...
