We prove that if such a polynomial has only real coefficients, then it has two types of zeroes: the real isolated zeroes and the spherical conjugate ones. The total number of zeroes does not exceed the degree of the polynomial. We also present a technique for computing the zeroes.展开更多

So it is worth popularizing in the teaching of undergraduate physics and mathematics. Clifford algebras can be directly generalized to 2<sup>n</sup>-ary associative algebras. In this generalization, the matrix representation of the orthonormal basis of space-time plays an important role. The matrix representation carries more information than the abstract definition, such as determinant and the definition of inverse elements. Without this matrix representation, the discussion of hypercomplex numbers will be difficult. The zero norm set of hypercomplex numbers is a closed set of special geometric meanings, like the light-cone in the realistic space-time, which has no substantial effect on the algebraic calculus. The physical equations expressed in Clifford algebra have a simple formalism, symmetrical structure, standard derivation, complete content. Therefore, we can hope that this magical algebra can complete a new large synthesis of modern science.展开更多

The Clifford algebra of space-time is enough for electro-weak interactions. To get the gauge group of the standard model, with electro-weak and strong interactions, a third algebra is sufficient, with only two more dimensions of space. The Clifford algebra of space allows us to include also gravitation. We discuss the advantages of our approach.展开更多

One of the causes is that there has been a complete theory about the complex Junction and the analytic junction, hut in space problems, the case is quite different.We have no effective method to deal with these problems. In this paper, we first introduces general theories of Clifford algebra. Then we emphatically explain Clifford algebra in three dimensions and establish theories of regular Junction in three dimensions analogically to analytic function in plane. Thus we extend some results of plane problem-la three dimensions or high dimensions. Obviously, it is very important for elastic and fluid mechanics. But because Clifford algebra is not a commutative algebra, we can't simply extend the results of two dimensions to high dimensions. The left problems are yet to be found out.展开更多

It is shown that the new electromagnetic field multivector can be obtained from a potential function that is closely related to the scalar and the vector potentials of classical electromagnetics. Additionally it is shown that the gauge transformations of the new multivector and its potential function and the Lagrangian density of the electromagnetic field are in agreement with the transformation rules of the second-rank antisymmetric electromagnetic field tensor, in contrast to the results obtained by applying other versions of Clifford algebras.展开更多

So it is signifi-cant to do research on the problems of coverage and target detection in three-dimensional sensor networks. In this paper, we introduced Clifford algebra in 3D Euclidean space, developed the coverage model of 3D sensor networks based on Clifford algebra, and proposed a method for detecting target moving. With Clif-ford Spinor, calculating the target moving formulation is easier than traditional methods in sensor node’s coverage area.展开更多

This wave equation is form invariant under the group generalizing the relativistic invariance. It is gauge invariant under the U(1)×SU(2)×SU(3) group of the standard model of quantum physics. The wave is a function of space and time with value in the Clifford algebra Cl1,5. Then many features of the standard model, charge conjugation, color, left waves, and Lagrangian formalism, are obtained in the frame of the first quantization.展开更多
