An algorithm for multiplication of split-octonions
Abstract
In this paper we introduce efficient algorithm for the multiplication of split-octonions. The direct multiplication of two split-octonions requires 64 real multiplications and 56 real additions. More effective solutions still do not exist. We show how to compute a product of the split-octonions with 28 real multiplications and 92 real additions. During synthesis of the discussed algorithm we use the fact that product of two split-octonions may be represented as vector-matrix product. The matrix that participates in the product calculating has unique structural properties that allow performing its advantageous decomposition. Namely this decomposition leads to significant reducing of the multiplicative complexity of split-octonions multiplication.
