Primitive ideals of operatorname{U}(frak{sl}(infty))

We provide an explicit description of the primitive ideals of the enveloping algebra $\operatorname{U}(\frak{sl}(\infty))$ of the infinite-dimensional finitary Lie algebra $\frak{sl}(\infty)$ over an uncountable algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. Our main new result is that any primitive ideal of $\operatorname{U}(\frak{sl}(\infty))$ is integrable. A classification of integrable primitive ideals of $\operatorname{U}(\frak{sl}(\infty))$ has been known previously, and relies on the pioneering work of A. Zhilinskii.
