introduction

  • Clifford algebras may be thought of as quantizations (cf. quantization (physics), Quantum group) of the exterior algebra, in the same way that the Weyl algebra is a quantization of the symmetric algebra.


spinor

  • Spinors are classified according to Dirac, Weyl, Majorana and Weyl-Majorana spinors.
  • applications
    • spinor bundles
    • spin connections
    • the role of spinors in the description of the fundamental interactions between elementary particles
