The problem of computing the composition multiplicities of Verma modules for a semisimple Lie algebra was famously solved by the proof of the Kazhdan-Lusztig conjecture, which gives the multiplicities in terms of certain polynomials known as the Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials. In this talk, I will discuss this problem for a related class of Lie algebras, known as truncated current Lie algebras. I will also discuss the BGG category O of modules for a semisimple Lie algebra and an analogue of this category for truncated current Lie algebras.
