Quaternionic vector space

In mathematics, a left (or right) quaternionic vector space is a left (or right) H-module where H is the (non-commutative) division ring of quaternions. The space Hn of n-tuples of quaternions is both a left and right H-module using the componentwise left and right multiplication: for quaternions q and q1, q2, ... qn. Since H is a division algebra, every finitely generated (left or right) H-module has a basis, and hence is isomorphic to Hn for some n. (Wikipedia).

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

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

What is a Vector Space? (Abstract Algebra)

Vector spaces are one of the fundamental objects you study in abstract algebra. They are a significant generalization of the 2- and 3-dimensional vectors you study in science. In this lesson we talk about the definition of a vector space and give a few surprising examples. Be sure to su

In this video, we will take note of the even subalgebra of G(3), see that it is isomorphic to the quaternions and, in particular, the set of rotors, themselves in the even subalgebra, correspond to the set of unit quaternions. This brings the entire subject of quaternions under the heading
