Classification of<i>S</i>(<i>n</i>,<i>p</i>,2,2) root systems (Q4033472)

This is one of a number of papers which the author has published concerning the structure and classification of special classes of symmetry sets closely related to root systems associated with certain classes of Lie algebras. In this paper he determines all 2-reduced rank 2 symmetry sets over fields of characteristic \(p\) in \(\mathbb{Z}_ p^ n\). For such symmetry sets the only possible roots are those roots \(a\) with \(\{0,\pm a\}\), \(\{0,\pm a,\pm 2a\}\), and \(\{0,\pm {1\over 2}a,\pm a\}\) as the only possibilities for the set of roots which are multiples of \(a\). In a previous paper [Linear Multilinear Algebra 31, 1-17 (1992; Zbl 0755.17017)] the author made this classification for \(p\neq 7\). The list of systems obtained here for \(p=7\) is the same as that obtained for \(p\geq 11\) in the earlier paper.
