Clifford algebras of $p$-central sets

Abstract

A generalization of the term "generalized Clifford algebras" (as appears in papers on advances in applied Clifford algebras) is introduced. This algebra is studied by means of structure theory of central simple algebras. A graph theoretical approach is proposed for studying the generating set of this algebra in case where the prime number under discussion is three. Finally, it is shown how to obtain solutions in to the equation αY3=αX13+βX23+α2β2X33\alpha Y^3=\alpha X_1^3+\beta X_2^3+\alpha^2 \beta^2 X_3^3 in Z[ρ]\mathbb{Z}[\rho] where ρ\rho is the primitive third root of unity.
