$U(\frak h)$-free modules over the Lie algebras of differential operators

Abstract

In this paper, we consider some non-weight modules over the Lie algebra of Weyl type. First, we determine the modules whose restriction to $U(\frak h)$ are free of rank $1$ over the Lie algebra of differential operators on the circle. Then we determine the necessary and sufficient conditions for the tensor products of quasi-finite highest weight modules and $U(\frak h)$-free modules to be irreducible, and obtain that any two such tensor products are isomorphic if and only if the corresponding highest weight modules and $U(\frak h)$-free modules are isomorphic. Finally, we extend such results to the Lie algebras of differential operators in the general case.
