Thursday, May 23: Integrated Algebra. Saturday, May 18: Global History & Geography. 'Algebra, Geometry and Physics'. What geometric product calculation? Clifford algebras in Classical Physics is being discussed at Physics Forums. Algebra Thursday, 21 February 2013; 8:00pm. What has come to be called Geometric Algebra is a school of thought among some physicists who amplify the good use of Clifford algebra in treatments of basic classical mechanics and quantum mechanics. Geometric algebra, or Clifford algebra, is a powerful mathematical language that contains vector algebra as a subsystem. The outcome,in physics for example, would be that while the geometrical description using Relativity works for some of this, and tells you that some physical quantities have just gone crazy, the larger framework tells you that if you keep track of the right physical variables, the physics is quite readily accessible all the way . The theory of Clifford algebras for real vector spaces V is rather complicated. The case of most interest in physics is V=\mathbf R^4, (\cdot,\cdot) the Minkowski inner product of signature (3,1). A lecture in Greek by Panagiotis Batakidis, Visiting Professor, University of Cyprus. Sunday, May 19: US History & Government. As DSM notes below, I am not after the cross product calculation, but the geometric product calculation as found in geometric algebra. Some years ago, Lasenby, Doran and Gull of the Cambridge geometry group, rewrote general relativity using Clifford algebra instead of tensors. The five EOCs included in HB 5 are: English I & English II, (combined reading and writing) Algebra I, Biology, & U.S. Organised by the Greek-Cypriot Brotherhood and University of Cyprus.
