Abstract: It is shown that the Spin(7)-invariant super Yang-Mills theory in euight dimensions, which relies on the existence of the Caley invariant, permits the construction of a cohomological extension, which relies on the existence of the eight-dimensional analogue of the Pontryagin invariant arising from a quartic chiral primary operator.
