Lie Groups and Lie Algebras, chapter VIII, § 7. Finite dimensional modules over a split semi-simple Lie algebra

If λ∈P++\lambda \in P_{++}, then ch[λ]∈Z[P]W\lambda ]\in \mathbf{Z}[P]^W. The unique maximal term of ch[λ]\lambda ] (Chap. VI, §3, no. 2, Def. 1) is eλe^{\lambda}.

The first assertion follows from no. 1, Cor. 2 of Prop. 2, and the second from §6, no. 1, Prop. 1 (ii).

Bourbaki sets the proof directly after the statement, and the corpus does not separate them, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
