Abstract: Let be a Lie algebra over the field of characteristic 0 and let denote its universal enveloping algebra. If is a -algebra and acts on as derivations, then there is a natural ring generated by and which is denoted by and called the smash product of by . The aim of this paper is to describe the prime ideals of this algebra when it is Noetherian. Specifically we show that there exists a twisted enveloping algebra on which acts and a precisely defined one-to-one correspondence between the primes of with and the -stable primes of . Here is a Lie algebra over some field .
