Abstract

If the characteristic of a field kk is odd any infinitesimal group scheme of PGL2,kPGL_{2,k} lifts to SL2,kSL_{2,k}. In this paper, we prove that this is not true in characteristic 22 and we give a complete description, up to isomorphism, of infinitesimal unipotent subgroup schemes of PGL2,kPGL_{2,k}. Also, the infinitesimal trigonalizable case is considered.
