In order to define the complex exceptional Lie groups $ {F_4}^C, {E_6}^C, {E_7}^C, {E_8}^C $ and these compact real forms $ F_4,E_6,E_7,E_8 $, we usually use the Cayley algebra $ \mathfrak{C} $. In the present article, we consider replacing…

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…

In physics, Lie groups represent the algebraic structure that describes symmetry transformations of a given system. Then, the descending Lie algebra of those groups are necessarily real. In most cases, the complexification of those Lie…

We give a full classification of Lie algebras of specific type in complexified Clifford algebras. These sixteen Lie algebras are direct sums of subspaces of quaternion types. We obtain isomorphisms between these Lie algebras and classical…

The process of complexification is used to classify a Lie algebra and identify its Cartan subalgebra. However, this method does not distinguish between real forms of a complex Lie algebra, which can differ in signature. In this paper, we…

We give a construction of the compact real form of the Lie algebra of type $E_6$, using the finite irreducible subgroup of shape $3^{3+3}:\mathrm{SL}_3(3)$, which is isomorphic to a maximal subgroup of the orthogonal group $\Omega_7(3)$. In…

We consider the group algebra over the field of complex numbers of the Weyl group of type B (the hyperoctahedral group, or the group of signed permutations) and of the Weyl group of type D (the demihyperoctahedral group, or the group of…

Let $G$ be a finite group. Denote by $\textrm{Irr}(G)$ the set of all irreducible complex characters of $G.$ Let $\textrm{cd}(G)=\{\chi(1)\;|\;\chi\in \textrm{Irr}(G)\}$ be the set of all irreducible complex character degrees of $G$…

We give an explicit construction of Lie algebras of type $E_7$ out of a Lie algebra of type $D_6$ with some restrictions. Up to odd degree extensions, every Lie algebra of type $E_7$ arises this way. For Lie algebras that admit a…

We generalize the classical construction principles of infinite-dimensional real (and complex) Lie groups to the case of Lie groups over non-discrete topological fields. In particular, we discuss linear Lie groups, mapping groups, test…

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…

These notes have been prepared for the Workshop on "(Non)-existence of complex structures on $\mathbb{S}^6$", to be celebrated in Marburg in March, 2017. The material is not intended to be original. It contains a survey about the smallest…

A topological group is called a pro-Lie group if it is isomorphic to a closed subgroup of a product of finite-dimensional real Lie groups. This class of groups is closed under the formation of arbitrary products and closed subgroups and…

New continuous group transforms, together with their discretization over a lattice of any density and admissible symmetry, are defined for a general compact simple Lie groups of rank $2\leq n<\infty$. Rank 1 transforms are known. Rank 2…

We present an explicit description of the 'fine group gradings' (i.e. group gradings which cannot be further refined) of the real forms of the semisimple Lie algebras $sl(4,\C)$, $sp(4,\C)$, and $o(4,\C)$. All together 12 real Lie algebras…

The five exceptional simple Lie algebras over the complex number are included one within the other as $G_2 \subset F_4 \subset E_6 \subset E_7 \subset E_8$. The biggest one, $E_8$, is in many ways the most mysterious. This article surveys…

A new structure, based on joining copies of a group by means of a \emph{twist}, has recently been considered to describe the brackets of the two exceptional real Lie algebras of type $G_2$ in a highly symmetric way. In this work we show…

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 characterize, up to Lie isomorphism, the real Lie groups that are definable in an o-minimal expansion of the real field.

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,…
