From their inception, quaternions and their division algebra have proven to be advantageous in modelling rotation/orientation in three-dimensional spaces and have seen use from the initial formulation of electromagnetic filed theory through…
Gupta et al. [1, 2] describe a very beautiful application of algebraic geometry to lattice structures composed of quadric of revolution (quador) implicit surfaces. However, the shapes created have concave edges where the stubs meet, and…
Inspired by the relation between the algebra of complex numbers and plane geometry, William Rowan Hamilton sought an algebra of triples for application to three dimensional geometry. Unable to multiply and divide triples, he invented a…
In describing a dynamical system, the greatest part of the work for a theoretician is to translate experimental data into differential equations. It is desirable for such differential equations to admit a Lagrangian and/or an Hamiltonian…
While real Hamiltonian mechanics and Hermitian quantum mechanics can both be cast in the framework of complex canonical equations, their complex generalisations have hitherto been remained tangential. In this paper quaternionic and…
Toeplitz matrices are characterized by their constant diagonals, have been extensively studied in various settings, including over real and complex numbers. However, their study over quaternions is quite sparse. In this paper, we…
We describe the fractal solid by a special continuous medium model. We propose to describe the fractal solid by a fractional continuous model, where all characteristics and fields are defined everywhere in the volume but they follow some…
150 years after the discovery of quaternions, Hamilton's conjecture that quaternions are a fundamental language for physics is reevaluated and shown to be essentially correct, provided one admits complex numbers in both classical and…
In this paper, real matrix representations of split quaternions are examined in terms of the casual character of quaternion. Then, we give De-Moivre' s formula for real matrices of timelike and spacelike split quaternions, separately.…
It is known that the groups of Euclidean rotations in dimension 3 (isometries of $S^2$), general Lorentz transformations in dimension 4 (Hyperbolic isometries in dimension 3), and screw motions in dimension 3 can be represented by the…
Over the last years, considerable attention has been paid to the role of the quaternion differential equations (QDEs) which extend the ordinary differential equations. The theory of QDEs was recently well established and it has wide…
Newtonian dynamical systems accepting the normal shift on an arbitrary Riemannian manifold are considered. Partial differential equations forming the weak and additional normality conditions for them are reported.
Continuum mechanics can be formulated in the Lagrangian frame (addressing motion of individual continuum particles) or in the Eulerian frame (addressing evolution of fields in an inertial frame). There is a canonical Hamiltonian structure…
In this paper, we introduce the notion of quaternion shearlet transform- which is an extension of the ordinary shearlet transform. Firstly, we study the fundamental properties of quaternion shearlet transforms and then establish some basic…
The quaternions form a 4-dimensional Cayley-Dickson algebra. In this paper, we introduce the Tetranacci and Tetranacci-Lucas quaternions. Furthermore, we present some properties of these quaternions and derive relationships between them.
Nonlinear PID control systems for a quadrotor UAV are proposed to follow an attitude tracking command and a position tracking command. The control systems are developed directly on the special Euclidean group to avoid singularities of…
We first demonstrate how our general intuition of pseudoforces has to navigate around several pitfalls in rotating frames. And then, we proceed to develop an intuitive understanding of the different components of the pseudoforces in most…
A systematic theory is introduced for calculating the derivatives of quaternion matrix function with respect to quaternion matrix variables. The proposed methodology is equipped with the matrix product rule and chain rule and it is able to…
The purpose of this book is to give an exposition of geometry, from a point of view which complements Klein's Erlangen program. The emphasis is on extending the classical Euclidean geometry to the finite case, but it goes beyond that. After…
The goal of this paper is to introduce and study some geometric properties of slice regular functions of quaternion variable like univalence, subordination, starlikeness, convexity and spirallikeness in the unit ball. We prove a number of…
