Elementary abelian 2-subgroups of compact Lie groups

We classify elementary abelian 2-subgroups of compact simple Lie groups of adjoint type. This finishes the classification of elementary abelian $p$ -subgroups of compact simple Lie groups (equivalently, complex linear algebraic simple groups) of adjoint type started in Griess (Geom Dedicata 39(3):253–305, 1991).
