Abstract
Let be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 2. We consider analogues of the Jacobson–Morozov theorem in this setting. More precisely, we classify those nilpotent elements with a simple 3-dimensional Lie overalgebra in and also those with overalgebras isomorphic to the algebras and . This leads us to calculate the dimension of the Lie automiser for all nilpotent orbits; in even characteristic this quantity is very sensitive to isogeny.
