sl2 highest-weight lowering formula ($X{Y}^{k+1}v=(k+1)(m-k)Y^{k}v$)

In the sl2 Lie algebra, if $Xv=0$ and $Hv=mv$, then the commutator relations give $H{Y}^{j}v=(m-2j)Y^{j}v$ and $X{Y}^{k+1}v=(k+1)(m-k)Y^{k}v$. Induct using $XY=YX+H$. This controls the raising operator on a string formed by the lowering operator and yields the classification of finite-dimensional sl2 representations.
