We give a computer free proof of the Deligne, Cohen and deMan formulas for the dimensions of the irreducible $g$-modules appearing in the tensor powers of $g$, where $g$ ranges over the exceptional complex simple Lie algebras. We give…
In six-dimensional F-theory/heterotic string theory, half-hypermultiplets arise only when they correspond to particular quaternionic K\"ahler symmetric spaces, which are mostly associated with the Freudenthal-Tits magic square. Motivated by…
It is shown that any finite dimensional simple Lie superalgebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0 is generated by 2 elements.
We connect the algebraic geometry and representation theory associated to Freudenthal's magic square. We give unified geometric descriptions of several classes of orbit closures, describing their hyperplane sections and desingularizations,…
A construction of the magic square, and hence of exceptional Lie algebras, is carried out using trialities rather than division algebras. By way of preparation, a comprehensive discussion of trialities is given, incorporating a number of…
It is known that semi-magic square matrices form a 2-graded algebra or superalgebra with the even and odd subspaces under centre-point reflection symmetry as the two components. We show that other symmetries which have been studied for…
The purpose of this paper is twofold. First, we introduce the notions of left-symmetric and left alternative structures on superspaces in characteristic 2. We describe their main properties and classify them in dimension 2. We show that…
We characterize finite-dimensional Lie algebras over an arbitrary field of characteristic zero which admit a non-trivial (quasi-) triangular Lie bialgebra structure.
Lie algebras endowed with an action by automorphisms of the dicyclic group of degree 3 are considered. The close connections of these algebras with Lie algebras graded over the nonreduced root system BC1, with J-ternary algebras and with…
Magical supergravities are a very special class of supergravity theories whose symmetries and matter content in various dimensions correspond to symmetries and underlying algebraic structures of the remarkable geometries of the Magic Square…
We show there is a class of symplectic Lie algebra representations over any field of characteristic not 2 or 3 that have many of the exceptional algebraic and geometric properties of both symmetric three forms in two dimensions and…
In this paper we study Lie 2-algebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic two, which have a triangulable Cartan subalgebra, and derive some general properties of centerless ones. These properties allow us to do an analysis…
Associated to any complex simple Lie algebra is a non-reductive complex Lie algebra which we call the intermediate Lie algebra. We propose that these algebras can be included in both the magic square and the magic triangle to give an…
All finite-dimensional Leibniz algebra bimodules of a Lie algebra $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ over a field of characteristic zero are described.
In an earlier work extensions of supersymmetry and super Lie algebras were constructed consistently starting from any representation $\D$ of any Lie algebra $\g$. Here it is shown how infinite dimensional Lie algebras appear naturally…
We define the notion of a Lie superalgebra over a field $k$ of characteristic $2$ which unifies the two pre-existing ones - $\mathbb{Z}/2$-graded Lie algebras with a squaring map and Lie algebras in the Verlinde category ${\rm Ver}_4^+(k)$,…
We give explicit formulas proving restrictedness of the following Lie (super)algebras: known exceptional simple vectorial Lie (super)algebras in characteristic 3, deformed Lie (super)algebras with indecomposable Cartan matrix, and (under…
The property of the conformal algebra to contain the Schr\"odinger algebra in one less space dimension is extended to the supersymmetric case. More precisely, we determine the counterpart of any field theory admissible super conformal…
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…
This paper considers the multiplicative Hom-Lie superalgebra structures on infinite dimensional simple Lie superalgebras of vector fields with characteristic zero. The main result is that there is only the multiplicative Hom-Lie…
