Abstract

We investigate the graded Lie algebras of Cartan type $W$, $S$ and $H$ in characteristic 2 and determine their simple constituents and some exceptional isomorphisms between them. We also consider the graded Lie algebras of Cartan type $K$ in characteristic 2 and conjecture that their simple constituents are isomorphic to Lie algebras of type $H$.
