It is well-known that every derivation of a semisimple Lie algebra $L$ over an algebraically closed field $F$ with characteristic zero is inner. The aim of this paper is to show what happens if the characteristic of $F$ is prime with $L$ an exceptional Lie algebra. We prove that if $L$ is a Chevalley Lie algebra of type $\{G_2,F_4,E_6,E_7,E_8\}$ over a field of characteristic $p$ then the derivations of $L$ are inner except in the cases $G_2$ with $p=2$, $E_6$ with $p=3$ and $E_7$ with $p=2$. 查看全文>>
