A new and relatively simple version of the quaternion calculus is offered which is especially suitable for applications in molecular symmetry and structure. After introducing the real quaternion algebra and its classical matrix representation in the group SO(4) the relations with vectors in 3-space and the connection with the rotation group SO(3) through automorphism properties of the algebra a...

This paper gives a necessary criterion in terms of Hodge theory for representability by quaternion algebras of certain 2-torsion classes in the unramified Brauer group of a complex function field. This criterion is used to give examples of threefolds with unramified Brauer group elements which are the classes of biquaternion division algebras.

The subject of this paper is the Brauer group of a nonsingular complex projective variety. More specifically, we study the question of whether a 2-torsion element of the cohomological Brauer group is representable by a quaternion algebra over the generic point. Using intersection theory – on schemes and on algebraic stacks – we are able to describe an obstruction to such a representation, and t...

Abstract Let G be a p -group for some prime . Recall that the Hughes subgroup of is generated by all elements with order not equal to In this paper, we prove if cyclic, then has exponent or cyclic dihedral. We also generalised quaternion, must quaternion. With these results in hand, classify tidy -groups.

We classify the quadratic extensions K = Q[ √ d] and the finite groups G for which the group ring oK [G] of G over the ring oK of integers of K has the property that the group U1(oK [G]) of units of augmentation 1 is hyperbolic. We also construct units in the Z-order H(oK) of the quaternion algebra H(K) = ` −1, −1 K ́ , when it is a division algebra. Mathematics Subject Classification. Primary [...

In this study, generalized k-order Fibonacci hybrid quaternion is defined. We give recurrence relation, generating function, the summation formula and some properties for these quaternions. Furthermore, matrix representation quaternions determined. The Q_k defined numbers given By means of another matrices, several identities are also obtained.
