Prompted by a recent demonstration that the structure of a single quark-lepton generation may be understood via a Dirac-like linearization of the form p^2+x^2, we analyze the corresponding Clifford algebra in some detail. After classifying…

One of the main goals of these notes is to explain how rotations in reals^n are induced by the action of a certain group, Spin(n), on reals^n, in a way that generalizes the action of the unit complex numbers, U(1), on reals^2, and the…

In this review, an overview is given of several recent generalizations of the Fourier transform, related to either the Lie algebra sl_2 or the Lie superalgebra osp(1|2). In the former case, one obtains scalar generalizations of the Fourier…

We consider Clifford algebras with nonsymmetric bilinear forms, which are isomorphic to the standard symmetric ones, but not equal. Observing, that the content of physical theories is dependent on the injection $\oplus^n\bigwedge…

We use geometric parabolic induction functors and the adjoint functors for the supergroups Osp(2m+1,2n) (where m and n vary) to categorify the action of the infinite-dimensional Clifford algebra on the Fock space of semi-infinite forms.

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…
