TITLE: Howe duality for exceptional algebras
QUESTION [5 upvotes]: There is a nice tool in representation theory, the Howe duality, which as I know works for certain pairs of classical Lie algebras (the reference to the complete list of Howe dual pairs is appreciated very much). Is there any extension of the Howe duality for exceptional algebras?

REPLY [4 votes]: Yes, and it was studied both from the point of view of the local theory (correspondence of the infinitesimal characters) and automorphic forms. The following review of Jian-Shu Li's paper contains a nice selection of references:

More recent work was done by Gordan Savin and Wee Teck Gan.
