Clifford Algebra Approach to Superenergy Tensors

Abstract

Senovilla has recently defined an algebraic construction of a superenergy tensor T{A} from any arbitrary tensor A, by structuring it as an r-fold form. This superenergy tensor satisfies automatically the dominant superenergy property. We present a more compact definition using the r-direct product Clifford algebra r-Cl(p,q). This form for the superenergy tensors allows to obtain an easy proof of the dominant superenergy property valid for any dimension.
