Abstract: Let G be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p>0 and suppose that p is a very good prime for G. We prove that any maximal Lie subalgebra M of mathfrakg=mLie(G) with mrad(M)e0 has the form M=mLie(P) for some maximal parabolic subgroup P of G. We show that the assumption on p is necessary by providing a counterexample for groups type mE8 over fields of characteristic 5. Our arguments rely on the main results and methods of the classification theory of finite dimensional simple Lie algebras over fields prime characteristic.
