We give an algebraic formulation based on Clifford algebras and algebraic spinors for quantum information. In this context, logic gates and concepts such as chirality, charge conjugation, parity and time reversal are introduced and explored…

Real Clifford algebras for arbitrary number of space and time dimensions as well as their representations in terms of spinors are reviewed and discussed. The Clifford algebras are classified in terms of isomorphic matrix algebras of real,…

The purpose of the present article is to define and study a new class of descent algebras, called twisted descent algebras. These algebras are associated to the Barratt-Joyal theory of twisted bialgebras in the same way than classical…

Final version to appear in Archiv der Mathematik.

We give a presentation in terms of generators and relations of Hopf algebras generated by skew-primitive elements and abelian group of group-like elements with action given via characters. This class of pointed Hopf algebras has shown great…

These are notes on twisted K-homology theory and twisted Ext-theory from the C*-algebra viewpoint, part of a series of talks on ``C*-algebras, noncommutative geometry and K-theory'', primarily for physicists.

In this article we present a new and not fully employed geometric algebra model. With this model a generalization of the conformal model is achieved. We discuss the geometric objects that can be represented. Furthermore, we show that the…

We introduce a general framework to unify several variants of twisted topological $K$-theory. We focus on the role of finite dimensional real simple algebras with a product-preserving involution, showing that Grothendieck-Witt groups…

This article is based on a talk given by the author at MSRI in the workshop "Connections for Women" in January 2013, while being a part of the program "Noncommutative Algebraic Geometry and Representation Theory" at MSRI. One purpose of the…

We give two generalizations of the Clifford theorem to algebraic surfaces. As an application, we obtain some bounds for the number of moduli of surfaces of general type.

We introduce a generalization, called a skew Clifford algebra, of a Clifford algebra, and relate these new algebras to the notion of graded skew Clifford algebra that was defined in 2010. In particular, we examine homogenizations of skew…

Ram and Rammage have introduced an automorphism and Clifford theory on affine Hecke algebras. Here we will extend them to cyclotomic Hecke algebras and rational Cherednik algebras.

In this paper we address the problem of constructing a class of representations of Clifford algebras that can be named "alphabetic (re)presentations". The Clifford algebras generators are expressed as m-letter words written with a…

Drinfeld twists, and the twists of Giaquinto and Zhang, allow for algebras and their modules to be deformed by a cocycle. We prove general results about cocycle twists of algebra factorisations and induced representations and apply them to…

In this paper, we study Clifford algebra construction from the perspective of adjunctions motivated by the general framework of Krashen and Lieblich. We introduce a category of weighted polynomial laws whose associated Clifford algebra…

We present a method of computing elements of spin groups in the case of arbitrary dimension. This method generalizes Hestenes method for the case of dimension 4. We use the method of averaging in Clifford's geometric algebra previously…

The main aim of this paper is to investigate the structure of primitively generated connected braided bialgebras $A$ with respect to the braided vector space $P$ consisting of their primitive elements. When the Nichols algebra of $P$ is…

A new highly symmetrical model of the compact Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}^c_2$ is provided as a twisted ring group for the group $\mathbb{Z}_2^3$ and the ring $\mathbb{R}\oplus\mathbb{R}$. The model is self-contained and can be used without…

We define a general notion of centrally $\Gamma$-graded sets and groups and of their graded products, and prove some basic results about the corresponding categories: most importantly, they form braided monoidal categories. Here, $\Gamma$…

We use Clifford algebras to construct a unified formalism for studying constant extrinsic curvature immersed surfaces in riemannian and semi-riemannian $3$-manifolds in terms of immersed bilegendrian surfaces in their unitary bundles. As an…
