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…

This paper studies how the theory of derived algebras (in the sense of Bhatt-Mathew and Raksit) interacts with formal derived geometry, specifically the formal derived stacks which show up in the theory of prismatization. As an application…

These are lecture notes for a course on the theory of Clifford algebras, with special emphasis on their wide range of applications in mathematics and physics. Clifford algebra is introduced both through a conventional tensor algebra…

Given a nondegenerate ternary form $f=f(x_1,x_2,x_3)$ of degree 4 over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, we use the geometry of K3 surfaces to construct a certain positive-dimensional family of irreducible…

For a derived stack obtained as a quotient of a derived affine scheme by a reductive group, we show that shifted symplectic structures can be characterized by the Cartan-de Rham complex. For non-reductive groups, we also show the analogous…

Each vector space that is endowed with a quadratic form determines its Clifford algebra. This algebra, in turn, contains a distinguished group, known as the Lipschitz group. We show that only a quotient of this group remains meaningful in…

We show how the matrix algebra notions of determinant, spectrum, and Hermitian conjugation transfer to the Clifford algebra and to differential forms on parallelisable manifolds.

Clifford geometric algebras of multivectors are introduced which exhibit a bilinear form which is not necessarily symmetric. Looking at a subset of bi-vectors in CL(K^{2n},B), we proof that theses elements generate the Hecke algebra…

I apply the algebraic framework developed in arXiv:1101.4542 to study geometry of elliptic spaces in 1, 2, and 3 dimensions. The background material on projectivised Clifford algebras and their application to Cayley-Klein geometries is…

One particular approach to quantum groups (matrix pseudo groups) provides the Manin quantum plane. Assuming an appropriate set of non-commuting variables spanning linearly a representation space one is able to show that the endomorphisms on…

Quantum multiparameter deformation of real Clifford algebras is proposed. The corresponding irreducible representations are found.

We investigate the construction and properties of Clifford algebras by a similar manner as our previous construction of the octonions, namely as a twisting of group algebras of Z_2^n by a cocycle. Our approach is more general than the usual…

This is a survey paper on derived symplectic geometry, that will appear as a chapter contribution to the book "New Spaces for Mathematics and Physics", edited by Mathieu Anel and Gabriel Catren. Our goal is to explain how derived stacks can…

We introduce a theory of Clifford semialgebra systems, with application to representation theory via Hasse-Schmidt derivations on exterior semialgebras. Our main result, after the construction of the Clifford semialgebra, is a formula…

Quadratic descent of hermitian and skew hermitian forms over division algebras with involution of the first kind in arbitrary characteristic is investigated and a criterion, in terms of systems of quadratic forms, is obtained. A refined…

We construct geometric examples of N-differential graded algebras such as the algebra of differential forms of depth $N$ on an affine manifold, and $N$-flat covariant derivatives.

We study some properties of quadratic forms with values in a field whose underlying vector spaces are endowed with the structure of right vector spaces over a division ring extension of that field. Some generalized notions of isotropy,…

We explicitly describe the derived Picard groups of symmetric representation-finite algebras of type $D$. In particular, we prove that these groups are generated by spherical twists along collections of $0$-spherical objects, the shift and…

We consider Clifford algebras over the field of real or complex numbers as a quotient algebra without fixed basis. We present classification of Clifford algebra elements based on the notion of quaternion type. This classification allows us…

Classification of finite dimensional representations of the q-deformed Heisenberg algebra $H_q(3)$ is made by the help of Clifford algebra of polynomials and generalized Grassmann algebra. Special attention is paid when $q$ is a primitive…
