This is a survey article for "Handbook of Linear Algebra", 2nd ed., Chapman & Hall/CRC, 2014. An informal introduction to representations of quivers and finite dimensional algebras from a linear algebraist's point of view is given. The…
This article discusses the representation theory of noncommutative algebras reality-based algebras with positive degree map over their field of definition. When the standard basis contains exactly two nonreal elements, the main result…
Cyclotomic polynomials are basic objects in Number Theory. Their properties depend on the number of distinct primes that intervene in the factorization of their order, and the binary case is thus the first nontrivial case. This paper sees…
We propose to represent both $n$--qubits and quantum gates acting on them as elements in the complex Clifford algebra defined on a complex vector space of dimension $2n.$ In this framework, the Dirac formalism can be realized in…
We use mathematical induction to prove that the horizontal composition in the class of coherently diagonal complexes is indeed a binary operation. That is to say, the embedding of two coherently diagonal complexes in an alternating planar…
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…
We say that there is a representation of the universal algebra B in the universal algebra A if the set of endomorphisms of the universal algebra A has the structure of universal algebra B. Therefore, the role of representation of the…
We introduce a formalism based on a combinatorial notion of cell complex subject to an inclusion-reversing duality operation. Our main goal is to open the way for a functorial definition of field theories in a context where no manifold or…
{\sc CLIFFORD} is a Maple package for computations in Clifford algebras $\cl (B)$ of an arbitrary symbolic or numeric bilinear form B. In particular, B may have a non-trivial antisymmetric part. It is well known that the symmetric part g of…
The power of Clifford or, geometric, algebra lies in its ability to represent geometric operations in a concise and elegant manner. Clifford algebras provide the natural generalizations of complex, dual numbers and quaternions into…
We functorially identify similarity classes of line-bundle-valued quadratic forms on rank two vector bundles with isomorphism classes of pairs consisting of the degree zero and the degree one parts of the associated generalized Clifford…
A bialgebra is a structure which is simultaneously an algebra and a coalgebra, such that the algebraic and coalgebraic parts are "compatible". Bialgebras are normally studied over a field or commutative ring. In this paper, we show how to…
Bialgebras and Hopf (bi)modules are typical algebraic structures with several interacting operations. Their structural and homological study is therefore quite involved. We develop the machinery of braided systems, tailored for handling…
We construct a family of twisted generalized Weyl algebras which includes Weyl-Clifford superalgebras and quotients of the enveloping algebras of $\mathfrak{gl}(m|n)$ and $\mathfrak{osp}(m|2n)$. We give a condition for when a canonical…
We present different methods for symbolic computer algebra computations in higher dimensional (\ge9) Clifford algebras using the \Clifford\ and \Bigebra\ packages for \Maple(R). This is achieved using graded tensor decompositions,…
The main properties of hypercomplex generalization of quaternion system as antiquaternion are presented in this article. Definitions and studied of antiquaternions conjugation are introduced, their norm and zero divisor, and how to perform…
The three-dimensional universal complex Clifford algebra is used to represent relativistic vectors in terms of paravectors. In analogy to the Hestenes spacetime approach spinors are introduced in an algebraic form. This removes the…
We give an algebraic formulation based on Clifford algebras and algebraic spinors for quantum information. In this context, logic gates and concepts such as chirality, charge conjugation, parity and time reversal are introduced and explored…
This paper's central theme is to prove the existence of an n-algebra whose multiplication cannot be expressed employing any binary operation. Furthermore, to prove if two algebras are not isomorphic, this property does not hold for…
This paper contains a review of the theoretical foundations of Clifford algebras, spinors and spinor bundles in the so-called co-frame formalism. A compact index-free notation is introduced, along with a series of identities useful for…
