This can be generalized to establish directional uncertainty principles in Clifford geometric algebras with quaternion subalgebras. Learn Geometric Algebra and then you won't need complex numbers anymore (for physics) .. Lie 2-algebra 𝔤 with gauge Lie 2-group G – connection on a 2-bundle with values in 𝔤 on G -principal 2-bundle/gerbe over an orbifold X . 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 . It is much clearer and familiar. I'm undertaking a self-study of geometric algebra and differential forms. DG - Clifford Algebra / Differential Forms in Differential Geometry is being discussed at Physics Forums. Ok, that's a semi-important point for the physicist; Clifford algebra is _a_ generalization of complex numbers and quaternions. This is demonstrated by examples from electromagnetism. Cambridge Let me add one more reference: Theodore Frankel's book: The Geometry of Physics. Doran Sidney Sussex College 187 page 0.97 M.B. Physics is greatly facilitated by the use of Hestenes' spacetime algebra, which automatically incorporates the geometric structure of spacetime. Image and video hosting by TinyPic. I also agree with @Muphrid, that Geometric Algebra should be actually preferred as the language for modern physics, instead of differential forms. Those with a graduate education in physics are already familiar with the Geometric Algebra (GA) in that it is equivalent to the Gamma matrices used throughout quantum field theory. For a more coherent exposition starting see also at geometry of physics. Some years ago, Lasenby, Doran and Gull of the Cambridge geometry group, rewrote general relativity using Clifford algebra instead of tensors. It is very "Geometric algebra for physicists".
