TITLE: Chevalley restriction theorem for exterior algebras
QUESTION [8 upvotes]: Suppose $G$ is semisimple Lie group, $\mathfrak{g}$ is its Lie algebra, $\mathfrak{h}$ is a Cartan subalgebra of $\mathfrak{g}$, and $W$ is the correspondent Weyl group.
Chevalley restriction theorem says that there is isomorphism of algebras of invariants $\mathbb{C}[\mathfrak{g}]^{G}\simeq \mathbb{C}[\mathfrak{h}]^{W}$ given by restriction.
Here $\mathbb{C}[\mathfrak{g}]$ and $\mathbb{C}[\mathfrak{h}]$ denote the algebras of polynomial functions on correspondent algebras viewed as vector spaces. In other words, $\mathbb{C}[\mathfrak{g}]=Sym(\mathfrak{g}^*)$ is a symmetric algebra.
My question is: is there a similar result for algebra of $G$-invariants of the exterior algebra $\bigwedge(\mathfrak{g}^*)$? 
Thank you very much!

Edit:

See lemma 3.3 in the first paper: $C^\infty$ and polynomial (by Solomon, cited in the paper)
$W$-invariant differential forms on $\mathfrak h$ correspond to horizontal $G$-invariant forms on $\mathfrak g$. 
I just noted: You are asking for $G$-invariants of $\bigwedge \mathfrak g^\star$, i.e., constant differential forms.
These describe the de Rham cohomology of a compact form of $G$, by the theorem of Chevalley and Eilenberg, and can be described as the set of primitive elements. See books, for example,
