Classification of quasifinite\mathcal{W}_\infty -modules-modules

It is proved that an irreducible quasifinite -module is a highest or lowest weight module or a module of the intermediate series; a uniformly bounded indecomposable weight -module is a module of the intermediate series. For a nondegenerate additive subgroup Λ ofF _n, whereF is a field of characteristic zero, there is a simple Lie or associative algebraW(Λ,n)⁽¹⁾ spanned by differential operatorsuD ₁ ^m …D ₁ ^m foru ∈FΓ] (the group algebra), andm _i≥0 with , whereD _i are degree operators. It is also proved that an indecomposable quasifinite weightW(Λ,n)⁽¹⁾-module is a module of the intermediate series if Λ is not isomorphic to ℤ.
