Polynomial Representation of $E_7$ and Its Combinatorial and PDE Implications
In this paper, we use partial differential equations to find the decomposition of the polynomial algebra over the basic irreducible module of E6 into a sum of irreducible submodules. It turns out that the cubic polynomial invariant corresponding to the Dicksons' invariant trilinear form is the unique fundamental invariant. Moreover, we obtain a combinatorial identity saying that the dimensions of certain irreducible modules of E6 are correlated by the binomial coefficients of twenty-six. Furthermore, we find all the polynomial solutions for the invariant differential operator corresponding to the Dickson trilinear form in terms of the irreducible submodules.
