Abstract:The field of quaternions, denoted by H can be represented as an isomorphic four dimensional subspace of R 4×4 , the space of real matrices with four rows and columns. In addition to the quaternions there is another four dimensional subspace in R 4×4 which is also a field and which has -in connection with the quaternions -many pleasant properties. This field is called field of pseudoquaternions. It exists in R 4×4 but not in H. It allows to write the quaternionic linear term axb in matrix form as Mx where x is … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
