We introduce {\em half-whole} dimensions for quaternionic matrices and propose a quaternionic version of the Frobenius-Schur theorem which allows us to obtain the proper quaternionic dimensionality for the representations of the Dirac and…
We deploy algebraic complexity theoretic techniques for constructing symmetric determinantal representations of for00504925mulas and weakly skew circuits. Our representations produce matrices of much smaller dimensions than those given in…
It is possible to construct representations of the Lorentz group using four-dimensional harmonic oscillators. This allows us to construct three-dimensional wave functions with the usual rotational symmetry for space-like coordinates and…
In this paper, we provide a structure-preserving one-sided cyclic Jacobi method for computing the singular value decomposition of a quaternion matrix. In this method, the columns of the quaternion matrix are orthogonalized in pairs by using…
Some idea, which leads to a non-trivial solution of the quantum four-simplex equation, is exposed in this paper. We call this idea "pentagonal algebra". Few examples of the realisation of this idea are given here, and thus few examples of…
In this article we construct and discuss several aspects of the two-component spinorial formalism for six-dimensional spacetimes, in which chiral spinors are represented by objects with two quaternionic components and the spin group is…
We propose a new class of fundamental solutions for the numerical analysis of boundary value problems for the Maxwell equations. We prove completeness of systems of such fundamental solutions in appropriate Sobolev spaces on a smooth…
Commutative complex numbers of the form u=x+\alpha y+\beta z+\gamma t in 4 dimensions are studied, the variables x, y, z and t being real numbers. Four distinct types of multiplication rules for the complex bases \alpha, \beta and \gamma…
In this paper we investigate certain fusion relations associated to an integrable vertex model on the square lattice which is invariant under $Sp(4)$ symmetry. We establish a set of functional relations which include a transfer matrix…
A basis for each finite-dimensional irreducible representation of the symplectic Lie algebra sp(2n) is constructed. The basis vectors are expressed in terms of the Mickelsson lowering operators. Explicit formulas for the matrix elements of…
To each 4x4 matrix of reals another 4x4 matrix is constructed, the so-called associate matrix. This associate matrix is shown to have rank 1 and norm 1 (considered as a 16D vector) if and only if the original matrix is a 4D rotation matrix.…
Some comments are made on the matrices which serve as the basis of a quaternionic algebra. We show that these matrices are related with the quaternionic action of the imaginary units from the left and from the right.
The purpose of this short note is to relate a representation formula due to the Author and P. Romon for Lagrangian surfaces (see math.DG/0009202) to a more general Weierstrass representation type formula found by Konopelchenko for surfaces…
We introduce coordinates on the spaces of framed and decorated representations of the fundamental group of a surface with nonempty boundary into the symplectic group $Sp(2n,\mathbf R)$. These coordinates provide a noncommutative…
There are four division algebras over $\mathbb{R}$, namely real numbers, complex numbers, quaternions, and octonions. Lack of commutativity and associativity make it difficult to investigate algebraic and geometric properties of octonions.…
We show there is a class of symplectic Lie algebra representations over any field of characteristic not 2 or 3 that have many of the exceptional algebraic and geometric properties of both symmetric three forms in two dimensions and…
This paper proposes a novel matrix rank-one decomposition for quaternion Hermitian matrices, which admits a stronger property than the previous results in (sturm2003cones,huang2007complex,ai2011new). The enhanced property can be used to…
The explicit matrix realizations of the reversion anti-automorphism and the spin group depend on the set of matrices chosen to represent a basis of 1 -vectors for a given Clifford algebra. On the other hand, there are iterative procedures…
In this note explicit algorithms for calculating the exponentials of important structured 4 x 4 matrices are provided. These lead to closed form formulae for these exponentials. The techniques rely on one particular Clifford Algebra…
We give an asymptotic for the number of prime solutions to $Q(x_1,\dots, x_8) = N$, subject to a mild non-degeneracy condition on the homogeneous quadratic form $Q$. The argument initially proceeds via the circle method, but this does not…
