Recent developments in the construction of generalized Dirac duals have revealed, within the structure of the Clifford algebra $\mathbb{C}\otimes\mathcal{C}\ell_{1,3},$ the existence of distinct algebraic formulations of spinors duals with…
A spin space group provides a suitable way to fully exploit the symmetry of a spin arrangement with a negligible spin-orbit coupling. There has been a growing interest in applying spin symmetry analysis with the spin space group in the…

In this work we provide an elementary derivation of the indefinite spin groups in low-dimensions. Our approach relies on the isomorphism of Cl(p+1, q+1) to the algebra 2x2 matrices with entries in Cl(p,q), simple properties of Kronecker…
Given a real representation of the Clifford algebra corresponding to $R^{p+q}$ with metric of signature $(p,q)$, we demonstrate the existence of two natural bilinear forms on the space of spinors. With the Clifford action of $k$-forms on…

A quantum spin-1/2, and its associated su(2) algebra of Pauli spin matrices are familiarly linked to Clifford algebra and quaternions. Somewhat more loosely, we develop connections between the su(4) algebra of two spins and of its…
This article uses Clifford algebra of definite signature to derive octonions and the Lie exceptional algebra G2 from calibrations using Pin(7). This is simpler than the usual exterior algebra derivation and uncovers a subalgebra of Spin(7)…
The cohomology ring of a finite group, with coefficients in a finite field, can be computed by a machine, as Carlson has showed. Here "compute" means to find a presentation in terms of generators and relations, and involves only the…
We develop general techniques for computing the fundamental group of the configuration space of $n$ identical particles, possessing a generic internal structure, moving on a manifold $M$. This group generalizes the $n$-string braid group of…

We investigate with the help of Clifford algebraic methods the Mandelbrot set over arbitrary two-component number systems. The complex numbers are regarded as operator spinors in D\times spin(2) resp. spin(2). The thereby induced (pseudo)…
In this article, we extend the %Weyl-van der Waerden spinor technique for calculating helicity amplitudes to general massive fields of half-integer spins. We find that the little group generators can be represented as first-order…
The tensorial form of the spin-other-orbit interaction operator in the formalism of second quantization is presented. Such an expression is needed to calculate both diagonal and off-diagonal matrix elements according to an approach, based…
The paper surveys recent progress in the search for an appropriate internal space algebra for the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics. As a starting point serve Clifford algebras involving operators of left multiplication by octonions.…
Let $G$ be a real compact Lie group, such that $G=G^0\rtimes C_2$, with $G^0$ simple. Here $G^0$ is the connected component of $G$ containing the identity and $C_2$ is the cyclic group of order $2$. We give a criterion for whether an…
We develop a systematic approach to deriving addition theorems for, and some other bilocal sums of, spin spherical harmonics. In this first part we establish some necessary technical results. We discuss the factorization of orbital and spin…
