Popis: We introduce a class of graphs with coloured edges to encode subsystems of the classical root systems, which in particular classify them up to equivalence. We further use the graphs to describe root-kernel intersections, as well as restrictions of root (sub)systems on such intersections, generalising the regular part of a Cartan subalgebra. We also consider a slight variation to encode the hyperplane arrangements only, showing there is a unique noncrystallographic arrangement that arises. Finally, a variation of the main definition leads to elementary classifications of closed and Levi root subsystems.
Comment: v2: added two sections about closed and Levi root subsystems. 46 pages, 64 figures; comments welcome!
