Abstract: We prove an explicit formula for a projection of singular vectors in the Verma module over a rank 2 Kac-Moody Lie algebra onto the universal enveloping algebra of the Heisenberg Lie algebra and of $s{l}_2$ (Theorem 3). The formula is derived from a more general but less explicit formula due to Feigin, Fuchs and Malikov [Funct. Anal. Appl. 20 (1986), no. 2, 103-113]. In the simpler case of $A_1^1$ the formula was obtained in [Fuchs D., Funct. Anal. Appl. 23 (1989), no. 2, 154-156].

Review text

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 \(\mathfrak{sl}_2\).
