Title: Classification of irreducible Harish-Chandra modules over generalized Virasoro algebras

Abstract: Let $G$ be an arbitrary additive subgroup of $C$ and $Vir[G]$ the corresponding generalized Virasoro algebra. In the present paper, irreducible weight modules with finite dimensional weight spaces over $Vir[G]$ are completely determined. The classification strongly depends on the index group $G$. If $G$ does not have a direct summand $Z$, then such irreducible modules over $Vir[G]$ are only modules of intermediate series whose weight spaces are all 1-dimensional. Otherwise, there is one more class of modules which are constructed by using intermediate series modules over a generalized Virasoro subalgebra $Vir[G_0]$ of $Vir[G]$ for a direct summand $G_0$ of $G$ with corank 1.
