In fact Seligman is not clear about whether Lie's theorem (or another one) is still valid if the characteristic is greater than $n$. For instance, he gives a counter-example when $char(K)=n$, using the fact that there are $A,B$ s.t. $AB-BA=I$ (that is not a scoop); moreover he gives negative results but, really, no explicit positive results, that is discouraging. | |
