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)…

The unitary Clifford algebras are described here for the first time, and arise from the intersection of the orthogonal and common symplectic (Weyl) Clifford algebras of the complexification of the canonical phase space. The convergence of…
We study the algebra of complex polynomials which remain invariant under the action of the local Clifford group under conjugation. Within this algebra, we consider the linear spaces of homogeneous polynomials degree by degree and construct…
Clifford algebras have broad applications in science and engineering. The use of Clifford algebras can be further promoted in these fields by availability of computational tools that automate tedious routine calculations. We offer an…
A concrete representation of the Clifford algebra (for any hyperbolic quadratic space) is given using what are called Suslin matrices. This explicit construction is used to analyze the corresponding Spin groups and the involution and might…
The mathematical foundations of relativistic quantum mechanics is largely based upon the discovery of the Pauli and Dirac matrices. An algebra which lies at an even more fundamental level is the geometric Clifford algebra with metric…
We develop the method of averaging in Clifford (geometric) algebras suggested by the author in previous papers. We consider operators constructed using two different sets of anticommuting elements of real or complexified Clifford algebras.…
Classical anti-commuting spinor fields and their dynamics are derived from the geometry of the Clifford bundle over spacetime via the BRST formulation. In conjunction with Kaluza-Klein theory, this results in a geometric description of all…
The idea that spacetime has to be replaced by Clifford space (C-space) is explored. Quantum field theory (QFT) and string theory are generalized to C-space. It is shown how one can solve the cosmological constant problem and formulate…
We derive a set of Clifford-algebraic formulas for two major nonlinear conformal transformations of the physical quantities related to Maxwell's equations. The superiority of these formulas over their vector-tensorial counterparts are…
The physical interpretation of the main notions of the quantum group theory (coproduct, representations and corepresentations, action and coaction) is discussed using the simplest examples of $q$-deformed objects (quantum group…
We consider the Clifford algebra and the Clifford group associated with any quadratic module, degenerate or not, over an arbitrary commutative ring with 1. We determine some of the important subalgebras of the Clifford algebra under some…
Projection operators are central to the algebraic formulation of quantum theory because both wavefunction and hermitian operators(observables) have spectral decomposition in terms of the spectral projections. Projection operators are…
This paper is an elaboration of an introductory talk given by the author at a workshop on Clifford algebras at Tennessee Technical University, in May 2002. We give an introduction to the basic concepts of Clifford analysis, including links…
Quaternionic and octonionic realizations of Clifford algebras and spinors are classified and explicitly constructed in terms of recursive formulas. The most general free dynamics in arbitrary signature space-times for both quaternionic and…
Geometric algebra was initiated by W.K. Clifford over 130 years ago. It unifies all branches of physics, and has found rich applications in robotics, signal processing, ray tracing, virtual reality, computer vision, vector field processing,…
We revisit the Pauli-Clifford connection to introduce a real, grade-preserving algebraic framework for $n$-qubit quantum computation based on the tensor product $C\ell_{2,0}(\mathbb{R})^{\otimes n}$. In this setting, the bivector $J =…

In this paper we combine methods from projective geometry, Klein's model, and Clifford algebra. We develop a Clifford algebra whose Pin group is a double cover of the group of regular projective transformations. The Clifford algebra we use…
