Structure Theory.

The problem of classifying the finite dimensional simple Lie algebras over fields of characteristic p> 0 is a long-standing one. Work on this question has been directed by the Kostrikin-Shafarevich Conjecture of 1966, which states that over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p> 5...
