Abstract: In the present paper, we will show that three apparently disjoint objects: Galois representations arising from twenty-seven lines on a cubic surface (number theory and arithmetic algebraic geometry), Picard modular forms (automorphic forms), rigid Calabi-Yau threefolds and their arithmetic (Diophantine geometry) are intimately related to Hessian polyhedra and their invariants. We construct a Galois representation whose image is a proper subgroup of

W (E_{6})

, the Weyl group of the exceptional Lie algebra

E_{6}

. We give a conjecture about the identification of two different kinds of

L

-functions which can be considered as a higher dimensional counterpart of the Langlands-Tunnell theorem.
