Triality and algebraic groups of type

چکیده
We determine which simple algebraic groups of type D4 over arbitrary fields of characteristic different from 2 admit outer automorphisms of order 3, and classify these automorphisms up to conjugation. The criterion is formulated in terms of a representation of the group by automorphisms of a trialitarian algebra: outer automorphisms of order 3 exist if and only if the algebra is the endomorphism algebra of an induced cyclic composition; their conjugacy classes are in one-to-one correspondence with isomorphism classes of symmetric compositions from which the induced cyclic composition stems. 2010 Mathematics Subject Classification: 20G15, 11E72, 17A75.

Algebraic Groups of Type D4, Triality, and Composition Algebras
Conjugacy classes of outer automorphisms of order 3 of simple algebraic groups of classical type D4 are classified over arbitrary fields. There are two main types of conjugacy classes. For one type the fixed algebraic groups are simple of type G2; for the other type they are simple of type A2 when the characteristic is different from 3 and are not smooth when the characteristic is 3. A large pa...

متن کاملThe Outer-Automorphic WZW Orbifolds on so(2n), including Five Triality Orbifolds on so(8)
Following recent advances in the local theory of current-algebraic orbifolds we present the basic dynamics including the twisted KZ equations of each twisted sector of all outer-automorphic WZW orbifolds on so(2n). Physics-friendly Cartesian bases are used throughout, and we are able in particular to assemble two Z3 triality orbifolds and three S3 triality orbifolds on so(8).
متن کاملHopf Algebras with Triality
In this paper we revisit and extend the constructions of Glauberman and Doro on groups with triality and Moufang loops to Hopf algebras. We prove that the universal enveloping algebra of any Lie algebra with triality is a Hopf algebra with triality. This allows us to give a new construction of the universal enveloping algebras of Malcev algebras. Our work relies on the approach of Grishkov and ...
