When utilizing a cluster decomposible relativistic scattering formalism, it is most convenient that the covariant field equations take on a linear form with respect to the energy and momentum dispersion on the fields in the manner given by…

A comparison among different constructions of the quaternionic $4$-form $\Phi_{Sp(2)Sp(1)}$ and of the Cayley calibration $\Phi_{Spin(7)}$ shows that one can start for them from the same collections of "K\"ahler 2-forms", entering in…

In the literature, two approaches to the Weierstrass representation formula using spinors are known, one explicit, going back to Kusner & Schmitt, and generalized by Konopelchenko and Taimanov, and one abstract due to Friedrich, Bayard,…

We show that all spin groups of non-definite, quinary quadratic forms over a field with characteristic 0 can be represented as 2 by 2 matrices with entries in an associated quaternion algebra. Over local and global fields, we further study…

We study the representation and visualization of finite-dimensional quantum systems. In a generalized Wigner representation, multi-spin operators can be decomposed into a symmetry-adapted tensor basis and they are mapped to multiple…

Clifford algebras are used for definition of spinors. Because of using spin-1/2 systems as an adequate model of quantum bit, a relation of the algebras with quantum information science has physical reasons. But there are simple mathematical…

Recent work has shown that every 3D root system allows the construction of a correponding 4D root system via an `induction theorem'. In this paper, we look at the icosahedral case of $H_3\rightarrow H_4$ in detail and perform the…
