[For the entire collection see Zbl 0727.00003.] Let \(G\) be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field \(k\) of characteristic zero, and \(\rho: G\to GL(V)\) a finite-dimensional rational representation. Let \(u\in G\) be a non-central semisimple element of \(G\). The aim of the paper is to obtain lower bounds for \(\dim((\rho(u)-\lambda\text{ id})(V))\), not depending on the choice of \(u\) and \(\lambda \in k\). A construction of a certain non-zero semisimple element \(H_ \alpha\in\text{Lie}(G)\), not depending on \(\lambda\) and (up to conjugacy with respect to \(\text{Ad}(G)\)) on \(u\) and even \(\rho\), which enjoys the property \[ \dim((\rho(u)-\lambda\text{ id}(V))\geq(1/2)\dim((d\rho(H_ \alpha))(V)), \] is given. Explicit formulae for \(\dim((d\rho(H_ \alpha))(V))\) in the case of small highest weight of (irreducible) \(d\rho\) are given. In general, the lower bounds, based on a certain integer-valued invariant \(\text{depth}(V)\), are given. In general, for a faithful irreducible \(d\rho\) one has \(\dim(d\rho(f)V)>\dim(V)/(rk(G)+1)\) for any semisimple nonzero \(f\in\text{Lie}(G)\).
