In this work we let Φ be an irreducible root system, with Coxeter group W. We consider subsets of Φ which are abelian, meaning that no two roots in the set have sum in Φ∪{0}. We classify all maximal abelian sets (i.e., ...

Let $G$ be a simple simply connected algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field $K$ and $V$ an irreducible module defined over $K$ on which $G$ acts. Let $E$ denote the set of vectors in $V$ which are ...
