Thanks! I would need to think a bit more, but probably this should go into OSCAR itself eventually. In CoxeterGroups.jl we probably will deal with Cartan matrices and root systems as well. All this should somehow be compatible, and eventually in OSCAR. I currently don't know how to organize this properly; maybe first CoxeterGroups.jl should be in a beta state. We should keep Geck's paper in mind!
Thanks for your reply and for the reference!!
I write a quick demo of operations on Enveloping algebra here to show how it works.

Great! I am also interested in other structures, like root systems, but I know few about the algorithm behind them.
Some books I have read:
Just to mention, in the Oscar development version there is ongoing work on PBW algebras, mainly exposing the functionality for this in Singular to the Oscar/Julia side. This may be relevant for your work.
Hey guys!! @ulthiel @fingolfin I'm Rex from ECNU. I'd like to add the Universal Enveloping algebra to JuLie, but I need some advice before starting. Hope you are interested in this.
Background
Let $L = \bigotimes\limits_{i=1}^n\mathbb{C}.x_i$ be a Lie algebra, then
$$ \begin{align} [x_i,xj] = \sum{k=1}^nN_{ij}^{k}x_k \end{align} $$
where $N_{ij}^{k}$ is the structure constants of $L$ w.r.t the basis ${x_1,\cdots,x_n}$.
Let $\mathcal{U}(L)$ be the universal enveloping algebra of $L$. The PBW basis of $\mathcal{U}(L)$ defined by ${x_1,\cdots,x_n}$ is
$$ \{x_1^{i_1}x_2^{i_2}\cdots x_n^{i_n}|i_1, i_2, \cdots, i_n \geq 0\} $$
Implementation
Here is a sketch of the plan:
Data types
Operations
+
,-
,*(Int, LieElement)
are justVector
operationsLieElement
s is given byscmat
EnvElement
s can be reduced to the following case$$ (y_1, \cdots, y_r) \cdot (z_1, \cdots, z_s), where\ y_i, z_j\in\{xk\}{k=1}^n $$
It can then be simplified by the Lie bracket.
Looking for help
I'll be much grateful if there are any suggestions on the implementation.
For example:
Similar implementations in SageMath can be found here. But it costs a lot and is less flexible.
About me: I have some exprience with SageMath and start to learn Julia since last year.
My projects:
I'm quite new to QSCAR.jl, and it would be a great chance for me to know it by contributing to it. Thanks for your time!
