Mathematics of CLIFFORD - A Maple Package for Clifford and Graßmann Algebras
نویسنده
چکیده
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-Stein sausage. Graßmann and Clifford bases can be used. Properties of reversion in undotted and dotted wedge bases are discussed.

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

متن کاملDerivations on Certain Semigroup Algebras
In the present paper we give a partially negative answer to a conjecture of Ghahramani, Runde and Willis. We also discuss the derivation problem for both foundation semigroup algebras and Clifford semigroup algebras. In particular, we prove that if S is a topological Clifford semigroup for which Es is finite, then H1(M(S),M(S))={0}.
متن کاملGrade 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...
