• Involutions in groups of finite Morley rank of degenerate type (2007, background): “ p. In particular, taking p = 2, we find that U is 2-unipotent. Now if G is simple and U is nontrivial, then G is isomorphic to an algebraic group, by the classification theorem for groups of even type [ABC]. But then G contains a nontrivial p-torus for almost all p, a contradiction. The same argument”
