Quaternions: A Mathematica Package for Quaternionic Analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes new issues of the Mathematica standard package Quaternions for implementing Hamilton’s Quaternion Algebra. This work attempts to endow the original package with the ability to perform operations on symbolic expressions involving quaternion-valued functions. A collection of new functions is introduced in order to provide basic mathematical tools necessary for dealing with regular functions in R, for n ≥ 2. The performance of the package is illustrated by presenting several examples and applications.

On the Quaternionic Curves in the Semi-Euclidean Space E_4_2
In this study, we investigate the semi-real quaternionic curves in the semi-Euclidean space E_4_2. Firstly, we introduce algebraic properties of semi-real quaternions. Then, we give some characterizations of semi-real quaternionic involute-evolute curves in the semi-Euclidean space E42 . Finally, we give an example illustrated with Mathematica Programme.
متن کاملQuaterman vs. Quaternica: a Comparative Implementation of Quaternions in Maple and Mathematica
Quaternions are well suited to describe and combine rotations in the usual 3D euclidian space. Therefore, an increasing interest has been shown especially by engineers for symbolically computing with quaternions. To give the ability to perform manipulations on symbolic expressions involving quaternions, we designed Quaterman, a Maple package and Quaternica, a Mathematica package. We present the...
متن کاملClifford Algebra with Mathematica
The Clifford algebra of a n-dimensional Euclidean vector space provides a general language comprising vectors, complex numbers, quaternions, Grassman algebra, Pauli and Dirac matrices. In this work, we present an introduction to the main ideas of Clifford algebra, with the main goal to develop a package for Clifford algebra calculations for the computer algebra program Mathematica∗. The Cliffor...

متن کاملQUATERNIONS FOR GUTs
We derive an appropriate definition of transpose for quaternionic matrices and give a new panoramic review of the quaternionic groups. We aim to analyse possible quaternionic groups for GUTs.
