Keywords:
Weyl group; invariant polynomial
Weyl group; invariant polynomial
Summary:
For every simple finite-dimensional complex Lie algebra, I give a simple construction of all (except for the Pfaffian) basic polynomials invariant under the Weyl group. The answer is given in terms of the two basic polynomials of smallest degree.
