The scalar–vector representation is used to derive a simple algorithm to obtain the roots of a quadratic quaternion polynomial. Apart from the familiar vector dot and cross products, this algorithm requires only the determination of the unique positive real root of a cubic equation, and special cases (e.g., double roots) are easily identified through the satisfaction of algebraic constraints on...

In this paper, real matrix representations of split quaternions are examined in terms of the casual character of quaternion. Then, we give De-Moivre’ s formula for real matrices of timelike and spacelike split quaternions, separately. Finally, we state the Euler theorem for real matrices of pure split quaternions.

We aim to get the step derivative of a complex function, as it derives in imaginary direction real function. Given that function cannot be derived using i, which is used derive we intend base quaternion. Because many analytical studies on quaternions have been conducted, various examples can presented expression elementary In previous study, quaternion was regarded separate from basis number. H...

Quaternion quantum mechanics is examined at the level of unbroken SU(2) gauge symmetry. A general quaternionic phase expression is derived from formal properties of the quaternion algebra. pacs 03.65.Bz, 03.65.Ca,11.15.Kc, 02.30.+g 1 Quaternion Quantum Mechanics Quantum mechanics defined over general algebras have been conjectured since 1934 [1]. In 1936 Birkoff and von Neumann noted that the p...

The quaternion Fourier transform (QFT), which is a nontrivial generalization of the real and complex Fourier transform (FT) using quaternion algebra has been of interest to researchers for some years (see e.g. [3, 5]). It was found that many FT properties still hold but others have to be modified. Based on the (right-sided) QFT, one can extend the classical wavelet transform (WT) to quaternion ...

We establish some inequalities for invariant submanifolds involving totally real sectional curvature and the scalar curvature in a quaternion space form. The equality cases are also discussed. AMS Mathematics Subject Classification (2010): 53C40

Quaternion matrices are employed successfully in many color image processing applications. In particular, a pure quaternion matrix can be used to represent red, green, and blue channels of images. A low-rank approximation for obtained by using the singular value decomposition. However, this is not optimal sense that resulting may quaternion, i.e., contains real component which useful representa...

The well known conjugate gradient algorithm (cg-algorithm), introduced by Hestenes & Stiefel, [1952] intended for real, symmetric, positive definite matrices works as well for complex matrices and has the same typical convergence behavior. It will also work, not generally, but in many cases for hermitean, but not necessarily positive definite matrices. We shall show, that the same behavior is s...
