Introduction. Let K be an algebraically closed field, G = SL(3, K) the group of 3 × 3 matrices over K of determinant 1. Let denote the monoid of all 3 × 3 matrices over K. If e is an idempotent in , then

are opposite parabolic subgroups of G in the usual sense [1], [28]. However the map

does not exhaust all pairs of opposite parabolic subgroups of G. Now consider the representation ϕ:GSL(6, K) given by
