I quote the prologue to David Hestenes' Primer on Geometric Algebra for introductory mathematics and physics. This is demonstrated by examples from electromagnetism. I plan to do so by getting a copy of the book “Geometric Algebra for Physicists” by Lasenby and by starting to read it in a few days. Geometric algebra is also known as Clifford algebra which has many applications in physics and engineering. McNamara, “Oblique superposition of two elliptically polarized lightwaves using geometric algebra: is energy–momentum conserved?,” J. In the realms of notebook paper, creativity is hunted down like an infection. What geometric product calculation? Geometric algebra is not to be confused with algebraic geometry. To start my research I need to learn some geometric algebra first. Still posing as Ashkin, he taught analytical and solid geometry, algebra, and physics at the Bemidji State Teachers College in Minnesota; moved to St. Physics is greatly facilitated by the use of Hestenes' spacetime algebra, which automatically incorporates the geometric structure of spacetime. For these students, algebra and calculus are all syntax and no semantics. Anyway, as a first year physics undergrad, it's been a real pain to find any decent, really decent lecture courses, despite being at Cambridge, where there is an actual Clifford Algebra research group. Piazzese [Clifford Algebras and their Applications in Mathematical Physics, F. I had physics, algebra, geometry, astronomy, Greek and Latin. As DSM notes below, I am not after the cross product calculation, but the geometric product calculation as found in geometric algebra.
