We explain the orthogonal planes split (OPS) of quaternions based on the arbitrary choice of one or two linearly independent pure unit quaternions $f,g$. Next we systematically generalize the quaternionic Fourier transform (QFT) applied to…

In this paper, we give several matrix representations for the Horadam quaternions. We derive several identities related to these quaternions by using the matrix method. Since quaternion multiplication is not commutative, some of our results…

The structure of octonionic bimodules is formulated in this paper. It turns out that every octonionic bimodule is a tensor product, the category of octonionic bimodules is isomorphic to the category of real vector spaces. We show that there…

A formal description of quaternions by means of exterior calculus is presented. Considering a three-dimensional space-time characterized by three time-like coordinates, we have been able to consistently recover a suitable formulation of…

Over an algebraically closed field, we describe the affine varieties of solutions to the linear equations $a(xb)=c$ and $a(bx)=c$ over the split-octonions. We also determine the dimensions of the solution sets of arbitrary linear monomial…

Various problems of mathematical physics consider octonions and split-octonions as a mathematical structure, which underpins the eight-dimensional nature of these problems. Therefore, it is not surprising that octonionic analysis has become…

We present a practical Newton-based method for computing left eigenvalues of quaternion matrices. It uses only standard real/complex linear-algebra kernels via embeddings and applies to matrices of any size. Extensive tests on literature…

Linear algebra is usually defined over a field such as the reals or complex numbers. It is possible to extend this to skew fields such as the quaternions. However, to the authors' knowledge there is no commonly accepted notation of linear…
