Abstract

In this article, we exploit the theory of graded module categories with semi-infinite character developed by Soergel (Character formulas for tilting modules over Kac–Moody algebras, Represent. Theor. 2 (1998), 432–448) to study representations of infinite-dimensional Lie algebras of vector fields $W (n), S (n)$ and $H (n) (n \geq 2)$ , and obtain a description of indecomposable tilting modules. The character formulas for those tilting modules are determined.
