Abstract
We establish a link between classical heterotic strings and the groups of the magic square associated with Jordan algebras, allowing for a uniform treatment of the bosonic and superstring sectors of the heterotic string.

There is the exceptional Jordan algebra J38 of 3 × 3 octonionic matrices that are hermitian with respect to octonionic conjugation
The classical Lie groups can be regarded as the automorphism groups of Jordan algebras
