摘要
We show that every Kac-Moody Lie algebra of indefinite type contains a subalgebra with a Dynkin diagram having two adjacent vertices whose edge labels multiply to a number greater than or equal to five. Consequently, every Kac-Moody algebra of indefinite type contains a subalgebra of strictly hyperbolic type, and a free Lie algebra of rank two. (C) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
