$\mathrm{Spin}(9)$-invariant valuations on the octonionic plane (1501.06526v1)

Abstract: The dimensions of the spaces of $k$-homogeneous $\mathrm{Spin}(9)$-invariant valuations on the octonionic plane are computed using results from the theory of differential forms on contact manifolds as well as octonionic geometry and representation theory. Moreover, a valuation on Riemannian manifolds of particular interest is constructed which yields, as a special case, an element of $\mathrm{Val}_2^{\mathrm{Spin}(9)}$.
