Zusammenfassung: | In the paper, some properties of algebras of associative type are studied, and these properties are then used to describe the structure of finite-dimensional semisimple modular Lie algebras. It is proved that the homogeneous radical of any finite-dimensional algebra of associative type coincides with the kernel of some form induced by the trace function with values in a polynomial ring. This fact is used to show that every finite-dimensional semisimple algebra of associative type
