Weight-string enumeration algorithm
ID: weight-string-enumeration-algorithm
Start with the highest weight and process weights by increasing height below it. For each simple root, compute the upper endpoint from the already known higher weights, use the weight string endpoint relation, and append all downward steps. Repeat until the finite set stabilizes. This recovers the weights of a finite-dimensional Irreducible Lie algebra representation without determining weight multiplicities.
