چکیده مقاله:

The Lie derivation of multivector fields along multivector fields has been introduced by Schouten (see cite{Sc, S}), and studdied for example in cite{M} and cite{I}. In the present paper we define the Lie derivation of differential forms along multivector fields, and we extend this concept to covariant derivation on tangent bundles and vector bundles, and find natural relations between them and other familiar concepts. Also in spinor bundles, we introduce a covariant derivation along multivector fields and call it the Clifford covariant derivation of that spinor bundle, which is related to its structure and has a natural relation to its Dirac operator.

Multivector and Extensor Fields on Smooth Manifolds

The main objective of this paper (second in a series of four) is to show how the Clifford and extensor algebras methods introduced in a previous paper of the series are indeed powerful tools for performing sophisticated calculations appearing in the study of the differential geometry of a ndimensional manifold M of arbitrary topology, supporting a metric field g (of given signature (p, q)) and ...

Covariant Derivatives of Multivector and Extensor Fields

We give in this paper which is the second in a series of five a theory of covariant derivatives of multivector and extensor fields based on the geometric calculus of an arbitrary smooth manifold M, and the notion of a connection extensor field defining a parallelism structure on M. Also we give a novel and intrinsic presentation (i.e., one that does not depend on a chosen orthonormal moving fra...

Multivector Functions of a Multivector Variable ∗

In this paper we develop with considerable details a theory of multivector functions of a p-vector variable. The concepts of limit, continuity and differentiability are rigorously studied. Several important types of derivatives for these multivector functions are introduced, as e.g., the A-directional derivative (where A is a p-vector) and the generalized concepts of curl, divergence and gradie...

Functions of Multivector Variables

As is well known, the common elementary functions defined over the real numbers can be generalized to act not only over the complex number field but also over the skew (non-commuting) field of the quaternions. In this paper, we detail a number of elementary functions extended to act over the skew field of Clifford multivectors, in both two and three dimensions. Complex numbers, quaternions and ...

Chapter 38 The Structure Multivector

The structure multivector is an operator for analysing the local structure of an image. It combines ideas from the structure tensor, steerable filters, and quadrature filters where the advantages of all three approaches are brought into a single method by means of geometric algebra. The proposed operator is efficient to implement and linear up to a final steering operation. In this paper we der...
