This volume presents a set of models for the exceptional Lie
algebras over algebraically closed fieldsof characteristic O and
over the field of real numbers. The models given are based on the
algebras ofCayley numbers (octonions) and on exceptional Jordan
algebras. They are also valid forcharacteristics p * 2. The book
also provides an introduction to the problem of forms of
exceptionalsimple Lie algebras, especially the exceptional D4 's, 6
's, and 7 's. These are studied by means ofconcrete realizations of
the automorphism groups.Exceptional Lie Algebras is a useful tool
for the mathematical public in general-especially thoseinterested
in the classification of Lie algebras or groups-and for theoretical
physicists.
