3-folds

Quartic threefold

In algebraic geometry, a quartic threefold is a degree 4 hypersurface of dimension 3 in 4-dimensional projective space. showed that all non-singular quartic threefolds are irrational, though some of them are unirational. (Wikipedia).

Quaternions as 4x4 Matrices - Connections to Linear Algebra

In math, it's usually possible to view an object or concept from many different (but equivalent) angles. In this video, we will see that the quaternions may be viewed as 4x4 real-valued matrices of a special form. What is interesting here is that if you know how to multiply matrices, you a

Quaternions EXPLAINED Briefly

This is a video I have been wanting to make for some time, in which I discuss what the quaternions are, as mathematical objects, and how we do calculations with them. In particular, we will see how the fundamental equation of the quaternions i^2=j^2=k^2=ijk=-1 easily generates the rule for

Example of Quaternions

Matrix Theory: For the quaternion alpha = 1 - i + j - k, find the norm N(alpha) and alpha^{-1}. Then write alpha as a product of a length and a direction.

Abstract: Let X be a smooth and projective complex algebraic variety. Several notions, describing how close X is to projective space, have been developed: X is rational if an open subset of X is isomorphic to an open of a projective space, X is stably rational if this property holds for a

Quartic Polynomial Equations

In this video I show how to solve quartic polynomial equations by factoring. The concepts covered in this video involve factoring quartic polynomials, difference of two perfect squares, finding real and imaginary roots, zero product property, sum of two perfect squares, imaginary numbers.

Set Theory (Part 14c): More on the Quaternions

No background in sets required for this video. In this video, we will learn how the quaternions can be thought of as pairings of complex numbers. We also will show how the quaternions can be written as a 2x2 complex matrix as opposed to a 4x4 real matrix and how the unit quaternions form t
