Let be a Lie algebra, a complemented ideal of , and W an -module. Hochschild and Mostow have described the construction of a -module “induced” from W, which is finite-dimensional provided W is finite-dimensional and satisfies a nilpotent action condition. This note describes a modification of their construction which is functorial and a weak adjoint to the restriction functor from –modules to -modules.
