Streszczenie
We introduce non-abelian gradings of Lie algebras as their isotypic decompositions with respect to reductive groups of automorphisms. The main results relate to a special kind of $\mathrm{SL}_3$-gradings, in terms of which the commutation operation admits a simple description. We show that any simple Lie algebra but $C_n$ admits such a grading, and it is unique up to conjugation.
