Let \(G\) be a reductive group scheme over a base scheme \(S\), \(T\) an \(S\)-torus and \(\Psi\) a twisted root datum associated to \(T\). The paper under review studies closed embeddings of \(T\) into \(G\) that respect the given root datum. The author defines the embedding functor \(\mathfrak{E}(G,\,\Psi)\) whose points parametrize these embeddings. She proves that this functor is a left homogeneous space under the automorphism group of \(G\) and is represented by an \(S\)-scheme. It is also shown that \(\mathfrak{E}(G,\,\Psi)\) is a torsor over the scheme \(\mathcal{T}\) of maximal tori of \(G\) under the right action of the automorphism group of \(\Psi\). After having defined orientations of root data, the author introduces an oriented embedding functor, and proves a similar representability theorem for this functor. This functor has a structure of left homogeneous space under the adjoint action of \(G\) and a structure of torsor over \(\mathcal{T}\) under the action of the Weyl group of \(\Psi\). Also explained in the paper are the relations between points of the embedding functors and certain embedding problems of Azumaya algebras with involution. Over global fields, various local-global principles for those embedding problems are obtained by using \textit{M. Borovoi}'s results on local-global principles for homogeneous spaces [Math. Ann. 314, No. 3, 491--504 (1999; Zbl 0966.14017)]. In particular, some results of [\textit{G. Prasad} and \textit{A. S. Rapinchuk}, Comment. Math. Helv. 85, No. 3, 583--645 (2010; Zbl 1223.11047)] are improved.
