Toral stabilizers of restricted Lie algebras

This paper investigates the toral stabilizer of a finite-dimensional restricted Lie algebra $(\mathfrak{g},[p])$, defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ of positive characteristic. We compute the group of toral stabilizers of some simple Lie algebras and give a new characterization of the solvable restricted Lie algebras. Moreover, we determine the subalgebra structure of exceptional simple Lie algebras in good characteristic. We also provide applications, which concern the distribution of weight spaces.
