Jordan Form in Clifford Algebra

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Fundamental Theories of Physics ((FTPH,volume 55))

Abstract

The Jordan form of an element in a algebra over the complex field is uniquely determined by special generators of the factor algebra of its minimal polynomial. Examples are considered in Clifford algebra.
