Abstract

We construct central elements in the universal enveloping algebra using column-determinants for the split realization of the orthogonal Lie algebra. Our central elements are quite new and simple, though they are closely related to what Howe and Umeda gave for the orthogonal Lie algebra under the different realization as the alternating matrices.
