Popis: Let $G$ be a connected reductive linear algebraic group over a field $k$. Using ideas from geometric invariant theory, we study the notion of $G$-complete reducibility over $k$ for a Lie subalgebra $\mathfrak h$ of the Lie algebra $\mathfrak g = Lie(G)$ of $G$ and prove some results when $\mathfrak h$ is solvable or $char(k)= 0$. We introduce the concept of a $k$-semisimplification $\mathfrak h'$ of $\mathfrak h$; $\mathfrak h'$ is a Lie subalgebra of $\mathfrak g$ associated to $\mathfrak h$ which is $G$-completely reducible over $k$. This is the Lie algebra counterpart of the analogous notion for subgroups studied earlier by the first, third and fourth authors. As in the subgroup case, we show that $\mathfrak h'$ is unique up to $Ad(G(k))$-conjugacy in $\mathfrak g$. Moreover, we prove that the two concepts are compatible: for $H$ a closed subgroup of $G$ and $H'$ a $k$-semisimplification of $H$, the Lie algebra $Lie(H')$ is a $k$-semisimplification of $Lie(H)$.
