Lectures on Clifford (geometric) algebras and applications
The subject of Clifford (geometric) algebras offers a unified algebraic framework for the direct expression of the geometric concepts underlying the mathematical theories of linear and multilinear algebra, projective and affine geometries, and differential geometry. This bird's-eye view of Clifford (geometric) algebras and their applications is presented by six of the world's leading experts in the field. Key topics and features of this systematic exposition: * An Introductory chapter on Clifford Algebras by Pertti Lounesto * Ian Porteous (Chapter 2) reveals the mathematical structure of Clifford algebras in terms of the classical groups * John Ryan (Chapter 3) introduces the basic concepts of Clifford analysis, which extends the well-known complex analysis of the plane to three and higher dimensions * William Baylis (Chapter 4) investigates some of the extensive applications that...
