Without further ado, we may proceed to a proof of\dots \section{Complete Reducibility} Historically, complete reducibility was first proved by Herman Weyl for \(K = -\mathbb{C}\), using his knowledge of unitary representations of compact groups. -Namely, Weyl showed that any finite-dimensional semisimple complex Lie algebra -is (isomorphic to) the complexification of the Lie algebra of a unique simply -connected compact Lie group, known as its \emph{compact form}.

Namely, Weyl showed that any finite-dimensional semisimple complex Lie +algebra is (isomorphic to) the complexification of the Lie algebra of a unique +simply connected compact Lie group, known as its \emph{compact form}. Hence the category of the finite-dimensional representations of a given complex semisimple algebra is equivalent to that of the finite-dimensional smooth representations of its compact form, whose representations are known to be -completely reducible. +completely reducible -- see \cite[ch. 3]{serganova} for instance. This proof, however, is heavily reliant on the geometric structure of \(\mathbb{C}\). In other words, there is no hope for generalizing this for some
