“…The idea is that when p = 0 there is no distinction between demanding that a subgroup H of a reductive group G is reductive or linearly reductive or G-completely reducible, but there is a huge difference in positive characteristic. The notion of complete reducibility was introduced by Serre [52] and Richardson 1 [49], and over the past twenty years or so has found many applications in the theory of algebraic groups, their subgroup structure and representation theory, geometric invariant theory, and the theory of buildings: for examples, see [2], [5], [9], [30], [35], [36], [39], [56], [57], [58].…”
