Extendable orthogonal sets of integral vectors

Number Theory 2022-03-22 v1

Abstract

Motivated by a model in quantum computation we study orthogonal sets of integral vectors of the same norm that can be extended with new vectors keeping the norm and the orthogonality. Our approach involves some arithmetic properties of the quaternions and other hypercomplex numbers.
