On Exceptional Nilpotents in Semisimple Lie Algebras
Journal of Lie Theory, Volume 19 (2009) no. 2, pp. 371-390
We classify all pairs (m,e), where m is a positive integer and e is a nilpotent element of a simple Lie algebra, that arise in connection with the classification of simple rational W-algebras.
