Abstract: Let $mathfraka$ be an algebraic Lie algebra. An adapted pair for $mathfraka$ is pair $(h,eta)$ consisting of an ad-semisimple element of $hinmathfraka$ and a regular element of $etainmathfrak{a}^{\ast }$ satisfying $(adh)eta=-eta$. An adapted pair $(h,eta)$ is said to satisfy integrality if $adh$ has integer eigenvalues on $mathfraka$. Integrality is shown to hold for any Frobenius Lie algebra which is a biparabolic subalgebra of a semisimple Lie algebra; but may fail in general. Call $mathfraka$ regular if there are no proper semi-invariant polynomial functions on $mathfrak{a}^{\ast }$ and if the subalgebra of invariant functions is polynomial. In this case there are no known counter-examples to integrality. It is shown that if $mathfraka$ is the canonical truncation of a biparabolic subalgebra of a simple Lie algebra $mathfrakg$ which is regular and admits an adapted pair $(h,eta)$, then the eigenvalues of $adh$ on $mathfraka$ lie in $frac1mmathbbZ$, where $m$ is a coefficient of a simple root in the highest root of $mathfrakg$. Let $mathfraka$ be a regular Lie algebra admitting an adapted pair $(h,eta)$. Let $mathfrak{a}_{m}athbbZ$ be the subalgebra spanned by the eigensubspaces of $adh$ with integer eigenvalue. It is shown that the canonical truncation of $mathfrak{a}_{m}athbbZ$ is regular. Sufficient knowledge of the relation between the generators for the invariant polynomial functions on $mathfrak{a}^{\ast }$ and on $mathfrak{a}_m^{\ast }athbbZ$ can then lead to establishing the integrality of $(h,eta)$. This method is used to show the integrality of an adapted pair for a truncated parabolic subalgebra of a simple Lie algebra of type $C$.
