Abstract:Abstract.We investigate finite dimensional simple Lie algebras over an algebraically closed field F of characteristic p > 7 having a Cartan subalgebra H whose roots are dependent over F . We show that H must be one-dimensional or for some root a relative to H there is a 1-section L such that the core of L is a simple Lie algebra of Cartan type H(2 : m : 4>) or W(\ : n) for some n > 1 . The results we obtain have applications to studying the local behavior of simple Lie algebras and to classifying simple Lie al… Show more
