Triangular Lie algebra

Triangular module

Let ๐”ค =๐”ซโˆ’ โŠ•๐”ฅ โŠ•๐”ซ+ be a triangular Lie algebra over ๐•‚ and ๐œ† :๐”ฅ โ†’๐•‚ be a linear form. The triangular module ๐‘€(๐œ†) is the induced ๐”ค-module #m/def/lie

๐‘€(๐œ†)=Ind๐”ค๐”ฅโŠ•๐”ซ+โก๐•‚๐œ†

where the vacuum space ๐•‚๐œ† =๐•‚๐‘ฃ๐œ† is the nonzero (๐”ฅ โŠ•๐”ซ+)-module defined by1

๐”ซ+โŠ™๐‘ฃ๐œ†=0โ„ŽโŠ™๐‘ฃ๐œ†=๐œ†(โ„Ž)๐‘ฃ๐œ†

for โ„Ž โˆˆ๐”ฅ. This is a direct generalization of the Heisenberg module ๐‘€(๐‘˜).
