 \begin{theorem}[Poincaré-Birkoff-Witt]
-  Let \(\mathfrak{g}\) be a Lie algebra over \(K\) and \(\{X_i\}_i \subset
-  \mathfrak{g}\) be a basis for \(\mathfrak{g}\). Then \(\{X_{i_1} \cdot
-  X_{i_2} \cdots X_{i_n} : n \ge 0, i_1 \le i_2 \le \cdots \le i_n\}\) is a
-  basis for \(\mathcal{U}(\mathfrak{g})\).
+  Let \(\mathfrak{g}\) be a finite-dimensional Lie algebra over \(K\) and
+  \(\{X_i\}_i \subset \mathfrak{g}\) be a basis for \(\mathfrak{g}\). Then
+  \(\{X_{i_1} \cdot X_{i_2} \cdots X_{i_n} : n \ge 0, i_1 \le i_2 \le \cdots
+  \le i_n\}\) is a basis for \(\mathcal{U}(\mathfrak{g})\).
 \end{theorem}
