    Let \(\mathfrak{g}\) be a finite-dimensional semisimple complex Lie algebra. Then Soergel showed that the representation category \({\mathcal O}\) of \(\mathfrak{g}\) has a block decomposition into indecomposable blocks parametrized by certain subgroups of the Weyl group [\textit{W. Soergel}, J. Am. Math. Soc. 3, No. 2, 421--445 (1990; Zbl 0747.17008)]. In this paper, the author extends Soergel's results to the case of symmetrizable Kac-Moody algebras where the parameter does not intersect the critical hyperplanes. Although the results are similar, Soergel's techniques can not be applied to the infinite case. The Kac-Moody problem divides into two parts. If the parameter \(\Lambda\) contains a dominant weight, then the irreducibles have projective covers and there is a faithful set of small projectives. However, if \(\Lambda\) contains an antidominant weight then there are no projectives in the block. Here, the author applies the translation functors and deformation algebras introduced in his earlier paper [Math. Z. 243, No. 4, 689--717 (2003; Zbl 1021.17007)] to reduce the antidominant case to a block-equivalent dominant one. As an application, the author recovers the Kazhdan-Luzstig conjecture for symmetrizable Kac-Moody algebras where the associated Coxeter system is of finite or affine type.
