We present the derivation of the 6-dimensional Eulerian Lie group of the form SO(3,C). We describe our derivation process, which involves the creation of a finite group by using permutation matrices, and the exponentiation of the adjoint…

We find a new representation of the simple Lie algebra of type $E_7$ on the polynomial algebra in 27 variables, which gives a fractional representation of the corresponding Lie group on 27-dimensional space. Using this representation and…

We introduce a new class of $\mathfrak{sl}_2$-triples in a complex simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, which we call magical. Such an $\mathfrak{sl}_2$-triple canonically defines a real form and various decompositions of $\mathfrak{g}$.…

A symmetry $SU(2,2)$ group in terms of ladder operators is presented for the Jacobi polynomials, $J_{n}^{(\alpha,\beta)}(x)$, and the Wigner $d_j$-matrices where the spins $j=n+(\alpha+\beta)/2$ integer and half-integer are considered…

We give the supersymmetric extension of exceptional field theory for E$_{7(7)}$, which is based on a $(4+56)$-dimensional generalized spacetime subject to a covariant constraint. The fermions are tensors under the local Lorentz group ${\rm…

Some forms of Lie algebras of types E_6, E_7, and E_8 are constructed using the exterior cube of a rank 9 finitely generated projective module.

An irreducible representation of a reductive Lie algebra, when restricted to a Cartan subalgebra, decomposes into weights with multiplicity. The first part of this paper outlines a procedure to compute symmetric polynomials (e.g., power…

We generalize the notions of the orbifold Euler characteristic and of the higher order orbifold Euler characteristics to spaces with actions of a compact Lie group. This is made using the integration with respect to the Euler characteristic…

We construct explicit examples of E_8 lattices occurring in arithmetic for which the natural Galois action is equal to the full group of automorphisms of the lattice, i.e., the Weyl group of E_8. In particular, we give explicit elliptic…

I describe the \emph{Chiral rings} $R_{3,4}$ for $3$D, $N=4$ supersymmetric $G$-gauge theory and matter fields in quaternionic representations $E$: first, by a topological tweak of the construction of arxiv:1601.03586, and second, more…

In order to define the exceptional compact Lie groups $G_2,F_4,E_6,E_7,E_8$, we usually use the Cayley algebra $\mathfrak{C}$ or its complexification $\mathfrak{C}^C$. In the present article, we consider replacing the Cayley algebra…

There is a growing interest in the logical possibility that exceptional mathematical structures (exceptional Lie and superLie algebras, the exceptional Jordan algebra, etc.) could be linked to an ultimate "exceptional" formulation for a…

We formulate an equivariant conservation of number, which proves that a generalized Euler number of a complex equivariant vector bundle can be computed as a sum of local indices of an arbitrary section. This involves an expansion of the…

In this paper we examine embeddings of alternating groups and symmetric groups into almost simple groups of exceptional type. In particular, we prove that unless the alternating or symmetric group has degree 6 or 7, there is no maximal…

A Lie group is a group that is also a differentiable manifold, such that the group operation is continuous respect to the topological structure. To every Lie group we can associate its tangent space in the identity point as a vector space,…

Motivated by the simplicity and direct phenomenological applicability of field-theoretic orbifold constructions in the context of grand unification, we set out to survey the immensely rich group-theoretical possibilities open to this type…

First, I construct an isomorphism between the categories of (topological) groups of nilpotency class 2 with 2-divisible center and (topological) Lie rings of nilpotency class 2 with 2-divisible center. That isomorphism allows us to…

After a brief introduction to the Attractor Mechanism, we review the appearance of groups of type E7 as generalized electric-magnetic duality symmetries in locally supersymmetric theories of gravity, with particular emphasis on the…
