TITLE | Geometry along Vector Cross Products |
ABSTRACT | Abstract:The geometry of three dimensional Euclidean space is very special because of cross product. The vector cross product is a generalization of the cross product on the three dimensional Euclidean space, and its classification is closely related to manifolds with special holonomy groups. These manifolds play key roles in the studies of modern geometry. In this talk, we introduce the vector cross product and classify it according to real, complex, quaternion, octonion numbers and explain t he relations to studies of modern geometry. We also discuss complexfication of vector cross product and related geometry. |
