Abstract
We construct every finite-dimensional irreducible representation of the
simple Lie algebra of type $E_7$ whose highest weight is a nonnegative
integer multiple of the dominant minuscule weight associated with the type
$E_7$ root system. As a consequence, we obtain constructions of each
finite-dimensional irreducible representation of the simple Lie algebra of type
$E_6$ whose highest weight is a nonnegative integer linear combination
of the two dominant minuscule $E_6$-weights. Our constructions are
explicit in the sense that, if the representing space is $d$-dimensional, then
a weight basis is provided such that all entries of the $d d$
representing matrices of the Chevalley generators are obtained via explicit,
non-recursive formulas. To effect this work, we introduce what we call
$E_6$- and $E_7$-polyminuscule lattices that analogize
certain lattices associated with the famous special linear Lie algebra
representation constructions obtained by Gelfand and Tsetlin.
