How statement and proof provenance work
The first chip identifies the source of the statement or construction; the second identifies the source of its local proof or verification.
- Literature-sourced: the exact statement appears in a cited source; only wording and notation differ.
- AI-adapted: a semantically identical restatement of literature-sourced material, modulo indexing, notation, and boundary cases adopted by the library.
- AI-generated: a genuinely novel statement formulated by AI, with no source for the claim itself.
These labels describe origin, not correctness: citations and verification chips remain separate evidence.

For and , the image algebra is finite dimensional over .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The setting above and the hypotheses in the statement.
Fix a finite-dimensional complex semisimple Lie algebra , a Cartan subalgebra , and a positive Borel . Write , when , and . Let be a finitely generated -semisimple -module. Then if and only if for some finite list of weights. In either case every is finite dimensional. The list may be empty for ; finite generation is an independent hypothesis.

Fix a finite-dimensional complex semisimple Lie algebra , a Cartan subalgebra , and a positive Borel . Write , when , and . The BGG category is the full subcategory of left -modules satisfying all three conditions: is finitely generated; where ; and is finite dimensional for each . Its morphisms are all -linear maps. The zero module is included, generated by the empty set. The enveloping and triangular conventions are those of thm-pbw-ordered-monomial-basis-for-the-enveloping-algebra and thm-triangular-decomposition-from-a-chosen-positive-root-system. (The classical BGG category O)
Proof
Choose finitely many weight generators of and let be the sum of the full weight spaces at their distinct weights. Finite generation permits this choice and the support theorem makes finite dimensional. Every central element commutes with , hence preserves .
Restriction gives an algebra homomorphism . If kills , then for every , so kills . Its kernel is exactly . The image algebra therefore embeds in a finite-dimensional endomorphism space. For the quotient is the zero algebra.

Dependency tree · two levels
8 results within two dependency steps of this one, each drawn at its shortest distance from it. An arrow runs from a result to what uses it, so the chart reads left to right and ends at this result, which carries a heavier outline. Every node is a link to that result.
