We interpret the elements of the exceptional Lie algebra $\mathfrak{e}_{8(-24)}$ as objects in the Standard Model, including lepton and quark spinors with the usual properties, the Standard Model Lie algebra…

We study the lowest dimensional typical and atypical representations of SU(5/3) superalgebra as a possible unified gauge theory having a natural SU(5) subalgebra with SU(3) extra structure, which will be used to accommodate three…

In this article we begin the study of representations of simple finite-dimensional noncommutative Jordan superalgebras. In the case of degree $\geq 3$ we show that any finite-dimensional representation is completely reducible and, depending…

We present a periodic infinite chain of finite generalisations of the exceptional structures, including e8, the exceptional Jordan algebra (and pair), and the octonions. We demonstrate that the exceptional Jordan algebra is part of an…

This note adds to the recent spate of derivations of the probabilistic apparatus of finite-dimensional quantum theory from various axiomatic packages. We offer two different axiomatic packages that lead easily to the Jordan algebraic…

We study the quantum degeneracies of BPS black holes of octonionic magical supergravity in five dimensions that is defined by the exceptional Jordan algebra. We define the quantum degeneracy purely number theoretically as the number of…

We announce here a number of results concerning representation theory of the algebra $R=k<x,y>/ (xy-yx-y^2)$, known as Jordan plane (or Jordan algebra). We consider the question on 'classification' of finite-dimensional modules over the…

Within the extremal black hole attractors arising in ungauged $\mathcal{N}\geqslant 2$-extended Maxwell Einstein supergravity theories in $3+1$ space-time dimensions, we provide an overview of the stratification of the electric-magnetic…

We point out a somewhat mysterious appearance of $SU_c(3)$ representations, which exhibit the behaviour of three full generations of standard model particles. These representations are found in the Clifford algebra $\mathbb{C}l(6)$, arising…

In this paper we study special representations of finite-dimensional Jordan algebra $J$ whose $Rad^2 J=0$. For each Jordan algebra $J$ of this class we consider its Tits-Kantor-Koecher construction $TKK(J)$ and then associate to the latter…

We show that the strongly symmetric spectral convex compact sets are precisely the normalized state spaces of finite-dimensional simple Euclidean Jordan algebras and the simplices. Spectrality is the property that every state has a convex…

In this work, we analyze two models beyond the Standard Models descriptions that make ad hoc hypotheses of three point-like lepton and quark generations without explanations of their physical origins. Instead of using the same Dirac…

The origin of the three fermion generations and their highly hierarchical mass spectra remains one of the most profound puzzles in particle physics. We show that the complexified exceptional Jordan algebra $J_{3}(\mathbb{O}_{\mathbb{C}})$,…

The goal of this note is to show that Jordan algebras and superalgebras provide an elegant and concise language for formulating quantum mechanical problems with inherent (super)conformal symmetry. The superconformal symmetries of the…

Symmetry postulates play a crucial role in various approaches to reconstruct quantum theory from a few basic principles. Discrete and continuous symmetries are under consideration. The continuous case better matches the physical needs for…

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…

For any $n\geq 3$, we prove that there exist equivalences between these apparently unrelated objects: irreducible $n$-dimensional non degenerate projective varieties $X\subset \mathbb P^{2n+1}$ different from rational normal scrolls and…

A new matrix model is described, based on the exceptional Jordan algebra. The action is cubic, as in matrix Chern-Simons theory. We describe a compactification that, we argue, reproduces, at the one loop level, an octonionic…

In the context of six-dimensional supergravity there is a special class of parent models for five-dimensional theories defined by the four Euclidean simple Jordan algebras of degree 3. We extend this result to include six- dimensional…

We argue that the ordinary commutative-and-associative algebra of spacetime coordinates (familiar from general relativity) should perhaps be replaced, not by a noncommutative algebra (as in noncommutative geometry), but rather by a Jordan…
