Integrable module

From HandWiki

In algebra, an integrable module (or integrable representation) of a Kac–Moody algebra [math]\displaystyle{ \mathfrak g }[/math] (a certain infinite-dimensional Lie algebra) is a representation of [math]\displaystyle{ \mathfrak g }[/math] such that (1) it is a sum of weight spaces and (2) the Chevalley generators [math]\displaystyle{ e_i, f_i }[/math] of [math]\displaystyle{ \mathfrak g }[/math] are locally nilpotent.[1] For example, the adjoint representation of a Kac–Moody algebra is integrable.[2]
