چکیده

Hopf algebraic structures will replace groups and group representations as the leading paradigm in forthcoming times. K-theory, co-homology, entanglement, statistics, representation categories, quantized or twisted structures as well as more geometric topics of invariant theory, e.g., the Graßmann-Cayley bracket algebra, are all covered by the Hopf algebraic framework. The new branch of experimental mathematics allows one to easily enter these fields through direct calculations using symbolic manipulation and computer algebra system (CAS). We discuss problems which were solved when building the BIGEBRA package for Maple and CLIFFORD 1 to handle tensor products, Graßmann and Clifford algebras, coalgebras and Hopf algebras. Recent results showing the usefulness of CAS for investigating new and involved mathematics provide us with examples. An outlook on further developments is given.

Clifford and Graßmann Hopf algebras via the BIGEBRA package for Maple ( R ) ∗

Mathematics of CLIFFORD - A Maple Package for Clifford and Graßmann Algebras

CLIFFORD performs various computations in Graßmann and Clifford algebras. It can compute with quaternions, octonions, and matrices with entries in Cl(B) the Clifford algebra of a vector space V endowed with an arbitrary bilinear form B. Two user-selectable algorithms for Clifford product are implemented: cmulNUM based on Chevalley’s recursive formula, and cmulRS based on non-recursive Rota-Stei...

Grade free product formulæ from Graßmann Hopf gebras

In the traditional approaches to Clifford algebras, the Clifford product is evaluated by recursive application of the product of a one-vector (span of the generators) on homogeneous i.e. sums of decomposable (Graßmann), multi-vectors and later extended by bilinearity. The Hestenesian ’dot’ product, extending the one-vector scalar product, is even worse having exceptions for scalars and the need...

On the relation of Manin’s quantum plane and quantum Clifford algebras

One particular approach to quantum groups (matrix pseudo groups) provides the Manin quantum plane. Assuming an appropriate set of non-commuting variables spanning linearly a representation space one is able to show that the endomorphisms on that space preserving the non-commutative structure constitute a quantum group. The noncommutativity of these variables provide an example of non-commutativ...
