It is well-known that the Clifford algebra Cl(2n) can be given a description in terms of creation/annihilation operators acting in the space of inhomogeneous differential forms on C^n. We refer to such inhomogeneous differential forms as…

This paper contains a review of the theoretical foundations of Clifford algebras, spinors and spinor bundles in the so-called co-frame formalism. A compact index-free notation is introduced, along with a series of identities useful for…

We consider formal maps in any finite dimension $d$ with coefficients in an integral domain $K$ with identity. Those invertible under formal composition form a group $\mathcal{G}$. We consider the centraliser $C_g$ of an element…

The first time that the connection between isometric immersion of surfaces and solutions of the Dirac equation appeared in the literature was in the seminal paper of Thomas Friedrich in 1998. In consequence of that, several authors…

In recent work, we examined the algebraic structure underlying a class of elements supercommuting with realization of the Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{osp}(1|2)$ inside a generalization of the Weyl Clifford algebra. This generalization…

It is shown that since the geometric spinors are elements of Clifford algebras, they must have the same transformation properties as any other Clifford number. In general, a Clifford number $\Phi$ transforms into a new Clifford number…

This papers studies centralizers of an element, $a$, in the nucleus of a non-associative algebra with a special type of valuation. We prove that the centralizer of $a$ is a free module of finite rank over the algebra generated by $a$.

We define a superalgebra S2(N/2) as a Z2 graded algebra of dimension 2N+3, where N is a positive, odd integer. The even component is a three-dimensional abelian subalgebra, while the odd component is made up of two N-dimensional, mutually…

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…

It is shown how the vector space $V_{8,8}$ arises from the Clifford algebra $Cl(1,3)$ of spacetime. The latter algebra describes fundamental objects such as strings and branes in terms of their $r$-volume degrees of freedom, $x^{\mu_1 \mu_2…

Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, $A = K[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ the polynomial ring, $R = K(x_1,\dots,x_n)$ the field of rational functions, and let $W_n(K) = \Der_{K}A$ be the Lie algebra of all $K$-derivations on…

Let $\mathfrak{g}=\mathfrak{g}_{\bar{0}}\oplus\mathfrak{g}_{\bar{1}}$ be a finite-dimensional simple Lie superalgebra of type $D(2,1;\alpha)$, $G(3)$ or $F(4)$ over $\mathbb{C}$. Let $G$ be the simply connected semisimple algebraic group…

A presentation of the centralizer of the three-fold tensor product of the spin $s$ representation of the quantum group $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ is provided. It is expressed as a quotient of the Askey-Wilson braid algebra. This newly defined…

We present a binary code for spinors and Clifford multiplication using non-negative integers and their binary expressions, which can be easily implemented in computer programs for explicit calculations. As applications, we present explicit…

We give explicit formulas for all odd order differential intertwinors on the subbundle of the bundle of spinor-$k$-forms that are annihilated by the Clifford multiplication over the odd dimensional standard sphere. The Dirac and…

Let G be an isotropic reductive algebraic group over a commutative ring R. Assume that, for any maximal ideal M of R, the rank of the relative root system of G_{R_M} is greater or equal than 2. We show that under this assumption the…

In this short pedagogical presentation, we introduce the spin groups and the spinors from the point of view of group theory. We also present, independently, the construction of the low dimensional Clifford algebras. And we establish the…

We describe spinors in Minkowskian spaces with arbitrary signature and their role in the classification of space-time superalgebras and their R-symmetries in any dimension.

Meta-centralizers of non-locally compact group algebras are studied. Theorems about their representations with the help of families of generalized measures are proved. Isomorphisms of group algebras are investigated in relation with…

In this paper we consider local centralizer classification and rigidity of some toral automorphisms. In low dimensions we classify up to finite index possible centralizers for volume preserving diffeomorphisms $f$ $C^{1}-$close to an…
