As is well-known, the real quaternion division algebra $ {\cal H}$ is algebraically isomorphic to a 4-by-4 real matrix algebra. But the real division octonion algebra ${\cal O}$ can not be algebraically isomorphic to any matrix algebras…

The form of realistic space-time supersymmetry is fixed, by Haag-Lopuszanski-Sohnius theorem, either to the familiar form of Poincare supersymmetry or, in massless case, to that of conformal supersymmetry. We question necessity for such…
