We determine (non-)triviality of Samelson products of inclusions of factors of the mod $p$ decomposition of $G_{(p)}$ for $(G,p)=(E_7,5),(E_7,7),(E_8,7)$. This completes the determination of (non-)triviality of those Samelson products in $p$-localized exceptional Lie groups when $G$ has $p$-torsion free homology.
There is a product decomposition of a compact connected Lie group $G$ at the prime $p$, called the mod $p$ decomposition, when $G$ has no $p$-torsion in homology. Then in studying the multiplicative structure of the $p$-localization of $G$, the Samelson products of the factor space inclusions of the mod $p$ decomposition are fundamental. This paper determines (non-)triviality of these fundamental Samelson products in the $p$-localized exceptional Lie groups when the factor spaces are of rank $\le 2$, that is, $G$ is quasi-$p$-regular.
We give p-local homotopy decompositions of the loop spaces of compact, simply-connected symmetric spaces for quasi-regular primes. The factors are spheres, sphere bundles over spheres, and their loop spaces. As an application, upper bounds for the homotopy exponents are determined.
The (non)triviality of Samelson products of the inclusions of the spheres into p-regular exceptional Lie groups is completely determined, where a connected Lie group is called p-regular if it has the p-local homotopy type of a product of spheres.
