Abstract: $frakg$-endomorphism algebras form an interesting class of associative algebras related to the adjoint representation of a semisimple Lie algebra $frakg$. These algebras were recently introduced by A.Kirillov, who used the term `family algebras'. Let $C_{l}ambda$ denote the $frakg$-endomorphism algebra associated with a simple $frakg$-module $V_{l}ambda$. Most of our results concern the case in which $C_{l}ambda$ is commutative, i.e., $V_{l}ambda$ is a weight multiplicity free $frakg$-module. It is proved that $C_{l}ambda$ is a polynomial algebra if and only if $lambda$ is minuscule. We also characterise in general the number of the irreducible components of the corresponding affine variety. The main result is that the commutative $frakg$-endomorphism algebra is always Gorenstein. We explicitly compute the Poincare series of $C_{l}ambda$ for any $lambda$, and show that in the commutative case the numerator coincides with the polynomial that was introduced by E.B.Dynkin in 1950. We also discuss a connection between commutative $frakg$-endomorphism algebras and equivariant cohomology.
