Description
I will give a brief description of N=4 Superconformal algebra followed by its emergence from quantization of the N=4 supertwistors space. I will further describe the algebra of the split-octonions and the octonions and highlight their emergence from the quantized supertwistor space. Towards the end of my talk I will describe the emergence of the Standard Model symmetry groups and fermions from split-octonions and octonions and motivate this emergence as coming from a super-Penrose transform on supertwistors space.
