On realizations of the Lie groups $ G_{2,\boldmath\scriptstyle{H}},F_{4,\boldmath\scriptstyle{H}},E_{6,\boldmath\scriptstyle{H}},E_{7,\boldmath\scriptstyle{H}},E_{8,\boldmath\scriptstyle{H}} $, second edition

Abstract

In order to define the exceptional compact Lie groups $G_2,F_4,E_6,E_7,E_8$, we usually use the Cayley algebra $\mathfrak{C}$ or its complexification ${\mathfrak{C}}^C$. In the present article, we consider replacing the Cayley algebra $\mathfrak{C}$ with the field of quaternion numbers $\boldmath{H}$ in the definition of the groups above, and these groups are denoted as in title above. Our aim is to determine the structure of these groups. We call realization to determine the structure of the groups.
