We construct and classify all possible Magic Squares (MS's) related to Euclidean or Lorentzian rank-3 simple Jordan algebras, both on normed division algebras and split composition algebras. Besides the known Freudenthal-Rozenfeld-Tits MS,…

We obtain an explicit formula for the bracket of the exceptional simple Lie algebra E8 based on triality and oct-octonions, following the Barton-Sudbery description of E8. Furthermore, we provide descriptions of the subalgebras E6 and E7…

The construction of Freudenthal's Magic Square, which contains the exceptional simple Lie algebras, in terms of symmetric composition algebras is further developed here. The para-Hurwitz algebras, which form a subclass of the symmetric…

The main achievement of this paper is a geometric characterisation of certain subvarieties of the Cartan variety (the standard projective variety associated to the split exceptional group of Lie type E_6) over an arbitrary field K. The…

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…

We construct the quaternion algebra [10] "geometrically" by a three dimensional analogue of the classic two dimensional geometric description of the complex field. The algebraic description of the multiplication operation in three…

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 consider a polynomial version of the Cayley numbers. Namely, we define the ring of Cayley polynomials in terms of generators and relations in the category of alternative algebras. The ring turns out to be an octonion algebra over an…

Starting from the four normed division algebras - the real numbers, complex numbers, quaternions and octonions - a systematic procedure gives a 3-cocycle on the Poincare Lie superalgebra in dimensions 3, 4, 6 and 10. A related procedure…

Using elementary linear algebra, this paper clarifies and proves some concepts about a recently introduced octonion-like associative division algebra over R. This octonion-like algebra is actually the same as the split-biquaternion algebra,…

We compute all complex structures on indecomposable 6-dimensional real Lie algebras and their equivalence classes. We also give for each of them a global holomorphic chart on the connected simply connected Lie group associated to the real…

We discuss how to represent the non-associative octonionic structure in terms of the associative matrix algebra using the left and right octonionic operators. As an example we construct explicitly some Lie and Super Lie algebra. Then we…

Recently, the classical Freudenthal Magic Square has been extended over fields of characteristic 3 with two more rows and columns filled with (mostly simple) Lie superalgebras specific of this characteristic. This Supermagic Square will be…

As is well-known, the real quaternion division algebra $ {\cal H}$ is algebraically isomorphic to a 4-by-4 real matrix algebra. But the real division octonion algebra ${\cal O}$ can not be algebraically isomorphic to any matrix algebras…
