Abstract: In two 1966 papers, Jacques Tits gave a construction of exceptional Lie algebras (hence implicitly exceptional algebraic groups) and a classification of possible indexes of simple algebraic groups. For the special case of his construction that gives groups of type E6, we connect the two papers by answering the question: Given an Albert algebra A and a separable quadratic field extension K, what is the index of the resulting algebraic group?

Review text

J. Tits constructed exceptional Lie algebras. In another paper, he classified simple algebraic groups and their indexes (i.e., Dynkin diagrams with additional information describing the action of the Galois group). The present paper connects these two papers of Tits by computing the indexes of Lie algebras of type E\(_6.\)
