Symmetric polynomials of algebras related with 2 × 2 generic traceless matrices

Let [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] be two generic traceless matrices of size [Formula: see text] with entries from a commutative associative polynomial algebra over a field [Formula: see text] of characteristic zero. Consider the associative unitary algebra [Formula: see text], and its Lie subalgebra [Formula: see text] generated by [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] over the field [Formula: see text]. It is well known that the center [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is the polynomial algebra generated by the algebraically independent commuting elements [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]. We call a polynomial [Formula: see text] symmetric, if [Formula: see text]. The set of symmetric polynomials is equal to the algebra [Formula: see text] of invariants of symmetric group [Formula: see text]. Similarly, we define the Lie algebra [Formula: see text] of symmetric polynomials in the Lie algebra [Formula: see text]. We give the description of the algebras [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], and we provide finite sets of free generators for [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text] as [Formula: see text]-modules.
