Abstract

On the basis of the Bruhat decomposition, the subgroups generated by pairs of unipotent short root subgroups in Chevalley groups of type $\mathrm {B}_{\ell }$, $\mathrm {C}_{\ell }$, and $\mathrm {F}_4$ over an arbitrary field are described. Moreover, the orbits of a Chevalley group acting by conjugation on such pairs are classified.
