We define and investigate a geometric object, called an associative geometry, corresponding to an associative algebra (and, more generally, to an associative pair). Associative geometries combine aspects of Lie groups and of generalized…

In this paper, we introduce the Grassmann tensor by tensor product of vectors and some basic terminology in tensor theory. Some basic properties of the Grassmann tensors are investigated and the tensor language is used to rewrite some…

Using the Plucker map between grassmannians, we study basic aspects of classic grassmannian geometries. For `hyperbolic' grassmannian geometries, we prove some facts (for instance, that the Plucker map is a minimal isometric embedding) that…

The Plucker relations define a projective embedding of the Grassmann variety Gr(k,n). We give another finite set of quadratic equations which defines the same embedding, and whose elements all have rank 6. This is achieved by constructing a…

We considered the possibility that the oriented matroid theory is connected with supersymmetry via the Grassmann-Plucker relations. The main reason for this, is that such relations arise in both in the chirotopes definition of an oriented…

The idea is to identify certain path algebra elements with symmetric functions. We propose such a morphism by solving the quiver relations, which describe the Plucker-type embedding for quiver grassmannians.

The relationship between spinors and Clifford (or geometric) algebra has long been studied, but little consistency may be found between the various approaches. However, when spinors are defined to be elements of the even subalgebra of some…

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 introduce an idempotent analogue of the exterior algebra for which the theory of tropical linear spaces (and valuated matroids) can be seen in close analogy with the classical Grassmann algebra formalism for linear spaces. The top wedge…

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…

The Clifford algebra of a n-dimensional Euclidean vector space provides a general language comprising vectors, complex numbers, quaternions, Grassman algebra, Pauli and Dirac matrices. In this work, we present an introduction to the main…

We explore a Pluecker-type relation which occurs naturally in the study of maximally supersymmetric solutions of certain supergravity theories. This relation generalises at the same time the classical Pluecker relation and the Jacobi…

Grassmann angles improve upon similar concepts of angle between subspaces that measure volume contraction in orthogonal projections, working for real or complex subspaces, and being more efficient when dimensions are different. Their…

In tropical algebraic geometry, the solution sets of polynomial equations are piecewise-linear. We introduce the tropical variety of a polynomial ideal, and we identify it with a polyhedral subcomplex of the Grobner fan. The tropical…

We show that via the Grassmann-Pl\"ucker relations, the various apparent unrelated concepts, such as duality, matroids, qubits, twistors and surreal numbers are, in fact, deeply connected. Moreover, we conjecture the possibility that these…

We present a survey of recent results, scattered in a series of papers that appeared during past five years, whose common denominator is the use of cubic relations in various algebraic structures. Cubic (or ternary) relations can represent…

This is an introduction to geometric algebra, an alternative to traditional vector algebra that expands on it in two ways: 1. In addition to scalars and vectors, it defines new objects representing subspaces of any dimension. 2. It defines…

The purpose of this article is to introduce projective geometry over composition algebras : the equivalent of projective spaces and Grassmannians over them are defined. It will follow from this definition that the projective spaces are in…

Symmetry and antisymmetry are fundamental concepts in many strict sciences. Pairwise comparisons (PC) matrices are fundamental tools for representing pairwise relations in decision making. In this theoretical study, we present a novel…
