We construct the well-known decomposition of the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{e}_8$ into representations of $\mathfrak{e}_6\oplus\mathfrak{su}(3)$ using explicit matrix representations over pairs of division algebras. The minimal representation…
We explicitly construct a particular real form of the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{e}_7$ in terms of symplectic matrices over the octonions, thus justifying the identifications $\mathfrak{e}_7\cong\mathfrak{sp}(6,\mathbb{O})$ and, at the group…
We give a new construction of the Lie algebra of type $E_8$, in terms of $3\times3$ matrices, such that the Lie bracket has a natural description as the matrix commutator. This leads to a new interpretation of the Freudenthal-Tits magic…
By exploiting suitably constrained Zorn matrices, we present a new construction of the algebra of sextonions (over the algebraically closed field $\mathbb{C}$). This allows for an explicit construction, in terms of Jordan pairs, of the…

We fill in the "hole" in the exceptional series of Lie algebras that was observed by Cvitanovic, Deligne, Cohen and deMan. More precisely, we show that the intermediate Lie algebra between $E_7$ and $E_8$ satisfies some of the decomposition…
This work provides five explicit constructions of the exceptional Lie algebra $\mathfrak{e}_8$, based on its semisimple subalgebras of maximal rank. Each of these models is graded by an abelian group, namely, $\mathbb{Z}_4$, $\mathbb{Z}_5$,…
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…
In the present paper we continue the project of systematic construction of invariant differential operators on the example of the non-compact exceptional algebra $E_{7(-25)}$. Our choice of this particular algebra is motivated by the fact…

This is an addition to a series of papers [FL1, FL2, FL3, FL4], where we develop quaternionic analysis from the point of view of representation theory of the conformal Lie group and its Lie algebra. In this paper we develop split…
In this paper, we introduce the notion of generalized representation of a $3$-Lie algebra, by which we obtain a generalized semidirect product $3$-Lie algebra. Moreover, we develop the corresponding cohomology theory. Various examples of…
For a perfect Lie algebra $\mathfrak{h}$ we classify all Lie algebras containing $\mathfrak{h}$ as a subalgebra of codimension $1$. The automorphism groups of such Lie algebras are fully determined as subgroups of the semidirect product…
A novel invariant decomposition of diagonalizable $n \times n$ matrices into $n$ commuting matrices is presented. This decomposition is subsequently used to split the fundamental representation of $\mathfrak{su}(3)$ Lie algebra elements…
