Adams and Conway have stated without proof a result which says, roughly
speaking, that the representation ring $R(G)$ of a compact, connected Lie group
$G$ is generated as a $\lambda$-ring by elements in 1-to-1 correspondance with
the branches of the Dynkin diagram. In this note we present an elementary proof
of this.
