Abstract

We study identities in the enveloping algebra of the conformal group, which is the symmetry group of many wave equations: d'Alambert, Weyl, Maxwell, etc. We find all second-order identities for these equations and, in addition, the dimension of the space of nontrivial symmetry operators of any order for the d'Alambert equation.
