contents We study branching problems for affine Kac--Moody algebras. Unlike the finite-dimensional case, an affine Kac--Moody algebra may contain proper subalgebras isomorphic to itself, such as winding subalgebras obtained by rescaling the loop parameter. We investigate the restriction of integrable highest-weight representations to such subalgebras. The restriction remains integrable and decomposes into irreducible components with finite multiplicities, encoded by pairs of highest weights. We show that this set is closed under addition, extending a result of Brion and Knop to the affine setting. We also give a partial description of this set and provide explicit results for types $A^{(1)}_1$ and $A^{(2)}_2$.
