Abstract
We consider partitions of ℝ16 into pairwise complementary 8-dimensional subspaces whose union covers ℝ16 (or, equivalently, fiberings of %plane1D;4AE;15 by great 7-spheres). It is shown that if such a partition is (globally) invariant by a closed subgroup of GL16(ℝ) locally isomorphic to SO7(ℝ,1), then it is linearly equivalent to the classical Hopf partition corresponding to the Cayley numbers %plane1D;4AA;, namely the system of lines through the origin in the affine Cayley plane over %plane1D;4AA;.
