Enveloping algebras of Lie subalgebras and PBW degree #
Over any field an injective Lie homomorphism induces an injective map of universal enveloping algebras, and that map preserves and reflects the PBW filtration. Thus the enveloping algebra of a Lie subalgebra identifies with the subalgebra generated by its canonical Lie generators, with the filtration inherited from the ambient enveloping algebra.
