Abstract

Continuing the theory of systems, we introduce a theory of Clifford semialgebra systems, with application to representation theory via Hasse-Schmidt derivations on exterior semialgebras. Our main result, after the construction of the Clifford semialgebra, is a formula describing the exterior semialgebra as a representation of the Clifford semialgebra, given by the endomorphisms of the first wedge power.

Notes

  1. Technically we are dealing with congruences, so the notation, which we use repeatedly, means that we are modding out the congruence generated by all \((x^j,0),\ j \ge n.\)
