We preserve the notation of Example 1.

The gg-module structure on MM defines on the KK-module P=LK(M,M)P = \mathscr{L}_K(M, M) of endomorphisms of MM a gg-module structure. By (6), for all x∈gx \in g and u∈Pu \in P:

(11)(11)
xP⋅u=[xM,u]=(ad xM)⋅u x_P \cdot u = [x_M, u] = (\mathrm{ad}\, x_M) \cdot u
where ad xM\mathrm{ad}\, x_M denotes the image of xMx_M under the adjoint representation of gl(M)\mathrm{gl}(M). In other words:
(12)(12)
xP=ad xM x_P = \mathrm{ad}\, x_M
in L(L(M,M))=L(gl(M))\mathscr{L}(\mathscr{L}(M, M)) = \mathscr{L}(\mathrm{gl}(M)).

Bourbaki puts the proof directly after the statement, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
