Abstract

Corresponding to a finite dimensional Hilbert space HH with dimH=n\dim H=n, we define a geometric algebra \gscript(H)\gscript (H) with dim\sqbrac\gscript(H)=2n\dim\sqbrac{\gscript (H)}=2^n. The algebra \gscript(H)\gscript (H) is a Hilbert space that contains HH as a subspace. We interpret the unit vectors of HH as states of individual fermions of the same type and \gscript(H)\gscript (H) as a fermion quantum field whose unit vectors represent states of collections of interacting fermions. We discuss creation operators on \gscript(H)\gscript (H) and provide their matrix representations. Evolution operators provided by self-adjoint Hamiltonians on HH and \gscript(H)\gscript (H) are considered. Boson-Fermion quantum fields are constructed. Extensions of operators from HH to \gscript(H)\gscript (H) are studied. Finally, we present a generalization of our work to infinite dimensional separable Hilbert spaces.
