Abstract:
In 1945 A. I. Mal'tsev investigated the problem on description of
abelian subgroups of largest dimension in complex simple Lie
groups. This problem's arisen from the theorem of I. Schur:
The largest dimension of abelian subgroups of the group
$SL(n,\mathbb{C})$ equals to $[n^2/4]$ and abelian subgroups of
such dimension for $n>3$ are transformed by automorphisms into
each other. A. I. Mal'tsev solved his problem by the reduction to
complex Lie algebras. In Cartan – Killing theory semisimple
complex Lie algebras are classified making use of the
classification of root systems in Euclidean space $V$. A Chevalley
algebra $\mathcal{L}_\Phi(K)$ is associated with the indecomposable
root system $\Phi$ and with the field $K$; the base of the
Chevalley algebra consists of the base of certain abelian
self-normalized subalgebra $H$ and of the elements $e_r$ $(r\in
\Phi)$ with $H$-invariant subspace $Ke_r$. The elements $e_r$
$(r\in\Phi^+)$ form a base of niltriangular subalgebra $N\Phi(K)$.
Methods of A. I. Mal'tsev were developed for the solving of the
problem on large abelian subgroups in finite Chevalley groups. In
this article we use the worked out methods for the reduction of
A. I. Mal'cev theorem for the Chevalley algebras. We investigate
the problems:
(A) to describe commutative subalgebras of largest
dimension in a Chevalley algebra $\mathcal{L}_\Phi(K)$ over
arbitrary field $K$.
(B) to describe commutative subalgebras of largest
dimension in subalgebra $N\Phi(K)$ of the Chevalley algebra $\mathcal{L}_\Phi(K)$ over arbitrary field $K$.
In this article we give the description of all commutative
subalgebras of largest dimension in subalgebra $N\Phi(K)$ of
classical type over arbitrary field $K$ up to automorphisms of
algebra $\mathcal{L}_\Phi(K)$ and of subalgebra $N\Phi(K)$.
Keywords:
