Starting from the geometric calculus based on Clifford algebra, the idea that physical quantities are Clifford aggregates ("polyvectors") is explored. A generalized point particle action ("polyvector action") is proposed. It is shown that…

We demonstrate the emergence of the conformal group SO(4,2) from the Clifford algebra of spacetime. The latter algebra is a manifold, called Clifford space, which is assumed to be the arena in which physics takes place. A Clifford space…
