Theorem 1 (Character Formula of H. Weyl)
Tag 015W, permanent. Cite it as [Bourbaki, Tag 015W].
Lie Groups and Lie Algebras, chapter VIII, § 9. The formula of Hermann Weyl
Let M be a finite dimensional simple -module, and its highest weight. Then
.ch .
With the notations of Lemma 3, the central character of M is §6, no. 4, Prop. 7). Hence, by Lemmas 2 and .ch M is a -linear combination of the such that
On the other hand, by §7, no. 7, Lemma .ch M is anti-invariant, and its unique maximal term is , hence the theorem.
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.
