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…
The exceptional series is a finite list of points on a projective line with a simple Lie algebra attached to each point. This list of Lie algebras includes the five exceptional Lie algebras. We give a uniform trigonometric $R$-matrix for…

This is a matricial description of all the fine group gradings on the exceptional Lie algebra $o(8,\mathbb C)$. There are fourteen.
We classify irreducible finite-dimensional modules of a collection of real Lie superalgebras that includes the simple ones, their classical variants, complex Lie superalgebras after restriction of scalars, and all real Lie algebras. Our…
We develop tools for classification of contraction algebras and apply these to solve the problem on classification up to isomorphism of 8 and 9 dimensional algebras corresponding to 3-fold flops. We prove that there is only one up to…
We present in this paper all the details for a complete description of the Lie algebra a in the split case at any characteristic. We finish with the determination of the expression of a generic element of this algebra. First of all is…
We study group gradings on the Albert algebra and on the simple exceptional Lie algebra $\frak{f}_4$ over algebraically closed fields of characteristic zero. There are eight nontoral nonequivalent gradings on the Albert algebra (three of…
In this thesis we consider the maximal subalgebras of the exceptional Lie algebras in algebraically closed fields of positive characteristic. This begins with a quick recap of the article by Herpel and Stewart which considered the Cartan…
We construct representation theory of Lie algebras with filtrations. In this framework a classification of irreducible representations is obtained and spectra of some reducible representations are found.
We construct every finite-dimensional irreducible representation of the simple Lie algebra of type $\mathsf{E}_{7}$ whose highest weight is a nonnegative integer multiple of the dominant minuscule weight associated with the type…
We describe a remarkable rank fourtenn matrix factorization of the octic Spin(14)-invariant polynomial on either of its half-spin representations. We observe that this representation can be, in a suitable sense, identified with a tensor…
We present all real solvable algebraically rigid Lie algebras of dimension $n\leq 8$. The difference between the classification of complex and real rigid Lie algebras is analyzed.
Singular vectors of a representation of a finite-dimensional simple Lie algebra are weight vectors in the underlying module that are nullified by positive root vectors. In this article, we use partial differential equations to find all the…
Four $\ZZ_+$-bigraded complexes with the action of the exceptional infinite-dimensional Lie superalgebra E(3,6) are constructed. We show that all the images and cokernels and all but three kernels of the differentials are irreducible…
In this paper, we give an expansion of two notions of double extension and $T^*$-extension for quadratic and odd quadratic Lie superalgebras. Also, we provide a classification of quadratic and odd quadratic Lie superalgebras up to dimension…
The octonionic root system of the exceptional Lie algebra E_8 has been constructed from the quaternionic roots of F_4 using the Cayley-Dickson doubling procedure where the roots of E_7 correspond to the imaginary octonions. It is proven…
It is well known that anomaly cancellations for D_16 Lie algebra are at the root of the first string revolution. For E_8 Lie algebra, cancellation of anomalies is the principal fact leading to the existence of heterotic string. They are in…
