    Let \(\mathfrak{g}\) be a Lie algebra with a fixed triangular decomposition, \(\mathfrak{g}=\mathfrak{n}_-\oplus\mathfrak{h} \oplus\mathfrak{n}_+\). A singular vector of a Verma module is a vector annihilated by \(\mathfrak{n}_+\). In the paper under review the authors prove an explicit formula for the projection of a singular vector in a Verma module over a rank 2 Kac-Moody Lie algebra onto the universal enveloping algebra of the Heisenberg Lie algebra and of \(\mathfrak{sl}_2\).
