Abstract

The compact simply connected Riemannian 4-symmetric spaces were classified by J.A. Jim{\'{e}}nez. As homogeneous manifolds, these spaces are of the G/HG/H, where GG is a connected compact simple Lie group with an automorphism γ~\tilde{\gamma} of oder 4 and HH is a fixed points subgroup GγG^\gamma of GG. In the present article, for the exceptional compact Lie group G=E8G=E_8, we give the explicit form of automorphism of order 4 induced by the R\boldsymbol{R}-linear transformation σ4\sigma'_{4} and determine the structure of the group (E8)σ4(E_8)^{\sigma'_{4}}. Thereby, we realize the globally exceptional Riemannian 44-symmetric space E8/(E8)σ4E_8/(E_8)^{\sigma'_{4}}.
