Abstract
The 7-dimensional Cayley-algebra module for the group G2(k) over a field k has a presentation by 1-subspaces corresponding to the points of the associated hexagon, subject to relations determined by the lines, and one further relation on the neighbors of a point. The proof is geometric, based on spanning by apartments of the building.
