Recently, a geometrical characterization of vector spaces served to generalize them into a new class of algebras. Instead of the algebraic properties of the underlying fields, we generalized the recently discovered property of such spaces…

The purpose of this book is to give an exposition of geometry, from a point of view which complements Klein's Erlangen program. The emphasis is on extending the classical Euclidean geometry to the finite case, but it goes beyond that. After…

A physical applicability of normed split-algebras, such as hyperbolic numbers, split-quaternions and split-octonions is considered. We argue that the observable geometry can be described by the algebra of split-octonions. In such a picture…

This is a translation from French into English of Argand's "Reflexions sur la nouvelle th\'eorie des imaginaires, suivies d'une application \`a la d\'emonstration d'un th\'eor\`eme d'analise", published in 1815. Argand reprises the method…

We consider composition and division algebras over the real numbers: We note two r\^oles for the group $G_{2}$: as automorphism group of the octonions and as the isotropy group of a generic 3-form in 7 dimensions. We show why they are…

We construct the quaternion algebra [10] "geometrically" by a three dimensional analogue of the classic two dimensional geometric description of the complex field. The algebraic description of the multiplication operation in three…

A new simple geometrical interpretation of complex numbers is presented. It differs from their usual interpretation as points in the complex plane. From the new point of view the complex numbers are rather operations on vectors than points.…

Geometric number systems, obtained by extending the real number system to include new anticommuting square roots of +1 and -1, provide a royal road to higher mathematics by largely sidestepping the tedious languages of tensor analysis and…

In this paper, we show how a construction of an implicit complexity model can be implemented using concepts coming from the core of von Neumann algebras. Namely, our aim is to gain an understanding of classical computation in terms of the…

We introduce a class of quantum integrable systems generalizing the Gaudin model. The corresponding algebras of quantum Hamiltonians are obtained as quotients of the center of the enveloping algebra of an affine Kac-Moody algebra at the…

We study geometric structures arising from Hermitian forms on linear spaces over real algebras beyond the division ones. Our focus is on the dual numbers, the split-complex numbers, and the split-quaternions. The corresponding geometric…
