摘要
为一般Lorentz变换给出了一种新的形式简单的四元数表示.其特点是所用四元数的分量要么是实数,要么是纯虚数.与以往的向量-张量表示和八元数表示(双四元数)相比,有其明显的优点.
A special quaternion representation with a simple form is constructed for general Lorentz transformations. A unique character of the representation lies in that all components of the quaternions used are either real numbers or pure imaginary numbers. The construction has considerable advantages over the conventional vector-tensor and biquaternion description.
