In this paper, Grand Unified theories are discussed in terms of quaternions and octonions by using the relation between quaternion basis elements with Pauli matrices and Octonions with Gell Mann \lambda matrices. Connection between the…
Trigonometric invariants are defined for each Weyl group orbit on the root lattice. They are real and periodic on the coroot lattice. Their polynomial algebra is spanned by a basis which is calculated by means of an algorithm. The…
Let G be a Lie group, $g = Lie(G)$ - its Lie algebra, $g*$ - the dual vector space and $\widehat G$ - the set of equivalence classes of unitary irreducible representations of $G$. The orbit method [1] establishes a correspondence between…
This paper considers the geometry of $E_8$ from a Clifford point of view in three complementary ways. Firstly, in earlier work, I had shown how to construct the four-dimensional exceptional root systems from the 3D root systems using…
Root subgroup factorization is a refinement of triangular (or LDU) factorization. For a complex reductive Lie group, and a choice of reduced factorization of the longest Weyl group element, the forward map from root subgroup coordinates to…
The largest finite subgroup of O(4) is the noncrystallographic Coxeter group $W(H_{4})$ of order 14400. Its derived subgroup is the largest finite subgroup $W(H_{4})/Z_{2}$ of SO(4) of order 7200. Moreover, up to conjugacy, it has five…
In this paper we continue our program, started in [2], of building up explicit generalized Euler angle parameterizations for all exceptional compact Lie groups. Here we solve the problem for E7, by first providing explicit matrix…
Given a grading on a nonassociative algebra by an abelian group, we have two subgroups of automorphisms attached to it: the automorphisms that stabilize each homogeneous component (as a subspace) and the automorphisms that permute the…
We prove that large classes of algebras in the framework of root of unity quantum cluster algebras have the structures of maximal orders in central simple algebras and Cayley-Hamilton algebras in the sense of Procesi. We show that every…
Let $\mathcal{D}$ be a Dynkin diagram and let $\Pi=\{\alpha_1,\dots ,\alpha_{\ell}\}$ be the simple roots of the corresponding Kac--Moody root system. Let $\mathfrak{h}$ denote the Cartan subalgebra, let $W$ denote the Weyl group and let…
Given a grading $\Gamma: A=\oplus_{g\in G}A_g$ on a nonassociative algebra $A$ by an abelian group $G$, we have two subgroups of the group of automorphisms of $A$: the automorphisms that stabilize each homogeneous component $A_g$ (as a…
The compact simply connected Riemannian 4-symmetric spaces were classified by J.A. Jim{\'{e}}nez according to type of the Lie algebras. As homogeneous manifolds, these spaces are of the form $G/H$, where $G$ is a connected compact simple…
We describe extension of the pyritohedral symmetry to 4-dimensional Euclidean space and present the group elements in terms of quaternions. It turns out that it is a maximal subgroup of both the rank-4 Coxeter groups W(F4) and W(H4)…
The derived algebra of a symmetrizible Kac-Moody algebra $\lie g$ is generated (as a Lie algebra) by its root spaces corresponding to real roots. In this paper, we address the natural reverse question: given any subset of real root vectors,…
The associative Cayley-Dickson algebras over the field of real numbers are also Clifford algebras. The alternative but nonassociative real Cayley-Dickson algebras, notably the octonions and split octonions, share with Clifford algebras an…
Quadratic algebras are generalizations of Lie algebras; they include the symmetry algebras of 2nd order superintegrable systems in 2 dimensions as special cases. The superintegrable systems are exactly solvable physical systems in classical…
Quantum theory may be formulated using Hilbert spaces over any of the three associative normed division algebras: the real numbers, the complex numbers and the quaternions. Indeed, these three choices appear naturally in a number of…
In part 1, we review the structure theory of $\mathbb{F} S_n$, the group algebra of the symmetric group $S_n$ over a field of characteristic 0. We define the images $\psi(E^\lambda_{ij})$ of the matrix units $E^\lambda_{ij}$ ($1 \le i, j…
Let $E$ be a cubic \'etale extension of the rational numbers which is totally real, i.e., $E \otimes \mathbf{R} \simeq \mathbf{R} \times \mathbf{R} \times \mathbf{R}$. There is an algebraic $\mathbf{Q}$-group $S_E$ defined in terms of $E$,…
