In mathematics, the '''Demazure character formula''' is a generalization of the [[Weyl character formula]] for the characters of finite dimensional representations of [[semisimple Lie algebra]]s, introduced by {{harvs|txt|authorlink=Michel Demazure|last=Demazure|year=1974b|loc=theorem 2}}. Demazure's formula gives the characters of '''Demazure modules''', the submodules of a finite dimensional representation generated by an extremal weight space under the action of a Borel subalgebra.
