Casimir element-Definition-Specializing further, if it happens that M has a Riemannian metric on which G acts transitively by isometries, and the stabilizer subgroup Gx of a point acts irreducibly on the tangent space of M at x, then the Casimir invariant of ρ is a scalar multiple of the Laplacian operator coming from ...

Casimir element-Properties-Uniqueness of the quadratic Casimir element Since for a simple Lie algebra every invariant bilinear form is a multiple of the Killing form, the corresponding Casimir element is uniquely defined up to a constant. For a general semisimple Lie algebra, the space of invariant bilinear forms has o...

Casimir element-Properties-Relation to the Laplacian on G If G is a Lie group with Lie algebra g , the choice of a nondegenerate invariant bilinear form on g corresponds to a choice of bi-invariant Riemannian metric on G . Then under the identification of the universal enveloping algebra of g with the left invaria...

Casimir element-Properties-Casimir elements and representation theory By Racah's theorem, for a semisimple Lie algebra the dimension of the center of the universal enveloping algebra is equal to its rank. The Casimir operator gives the concept of the Laplacian on a general semisimple Lie group; but there is no unique a...

Casimir element-Properties-By definition any member of the center of the universal enveloping algebra commutes with all other elements in the algebra. By Schur's Lemma, in any irreducible representation of the Lie algebra, any Casimir element is thus proportional to the identity. The eigenvalues of all Casimir elements...

Casimir element-Properties-Let L(λ) be the finite dimensional highest weight module of weight λ . Then the quadratic Casimir element Ω acts on L(λ) by the constant ⟨λ,λ+2ρ⟩=⟨λ+ρ,λ+ρ⟩−⟨ρ,ρ⟩, where ρ is the weight defined by half the sum of the positive roots. If L(λ) is nontrivial (i.e. if λ≠0 ), then this cons...
