For some monoids, we give a method of composing invertibility preserving maps associated to "partial involutions." Also, we define the notion of "determinants for finite dimensional algebras over a field." As examples, we give invertibility…

A signature epsilon=(p,q) dependent transposition anti-involution T of real Clifford algebras Cl_{p,q} for non-degenerate quadratic forms was introduced in [arXiv.1005.3554v1]. In [arXiv.1005.3558v1] we showed that, depending on the value…

In this paper, we present two fast matrix representation algorithms based on the recursive decomposition of multivectors into specific right and left ideals. We also examine the relation between these two representations. Furthermore, we…

A concrete representation of the Clifford algebra (for any hyperbolic quadratic space) is given using what are called Suslin matrices. This explicit construction is used to analyze the corresponding Spin groups and the involution and might…

In this Master of Science Thesis I introduce geometric algebra both from the traditional geometric setting of vector spaces, and also from a more combinatorial view which simplifies common relations and operations. This view enables us to…

We use isomorphism $\varphi$ between matrix algebras and simple orthogonal Clifford algebras $\cl(Q)$ to compute matrix exponential ${e}^{A}$ of a real, complex, and quaternionic matrix A. The isomorphic image $p=\varphi(A)$ in $\cl(Q),$…

Real physical systems with reflective and rotational symmetries such as viruses, fullerenes and quasicrystals have recently been modeled successfully in terms of three-dimensional (affine) Coxeter groups. Motivated by this progress, we…

The well-known classification of the Clifford algebras $Cl(r,s)$ leads to canonical forms of complex and real representations which are essentially unique by virtue of the Wedderburn theorem. For $s\ge 1$ representations of $Cl(r,s)$ on…

There has been recent interest in novel Clifford geometric invariants of linear transformations. This motivates the investigation of such invariants for a certain type of geometric transformation of interest in the context of root systems,…

We use our Clifford algebra technique, that is nilpotents and projectors which are binomials of the Clifford algebra objects $\gamma^a$ with the property $\{\gamma^a,\gamma^b\}_+ = 2 \eta^{ab}$, for representing quantum gates and quantum…

In previous work, we associated to $\textrm{SU(3)}$, $\mathrm{G}_2$, and $\textrm{Spin(7)}$-structures minimal left ideals for the Clifford algebras $\mathbb{R}_{0,6},\mathbb{R}_{0,7}$, and $\mathbb{R}_{0,8}$, respectively. In this paper,…

Quaternionic representations of Coxeter (reflection) groups of ranks 3 and 4, as well as those of E_8, have been used extensively in the literature. The present paper analyses such Coxeter groups in the Clifford Geometric Algebra framework,…

It shown that if a vector space carries commuting actions of two Clifford algebras, then the quadratic monomials using generators from either Clifford algebra determine a spinor representation of an orthogonal Lie algebra. Examples of this…

Commutative analogues of Clifford algebras are algebras defined in the same way as Clifford algebras except that their generators commute with each other, in contrast to Clifford algebras in which the generators anticommute. In this paper,…
