Quantization in physics (Snyder studied an interesting noncommutative space in the late 1940s). More generally, noncommutative geometry means There are many sources of noncommutative spaces, e.g. Cambridge Let me add one more reference: Theodore Frankel's book: The Geometry of Physics. Clifford Algebra, Geometric Algebra, and Applications - free book at E-Books Directory - download here. It is very "Geometric algebra for physicists". Those with a graduate education in physics are already familiar with the Geometric Algebra (GA) in that it is equivalent to the Gamma matrices used throughout quantum field theory. Analytic geometry could be moved into Algebra II – and there would be time as the “review” of solving systems wouldn't be needed as there wouldn't be the year off. I'm undertaking a self-study of geometric algebra and differential forms. Learn Geometric Algebra and then you won't need complex numbers anymore (for physics) .. Geometric Algebra is becoming increasingly important in computer science. Geometric Algebra for Computer Science book download Download Geometric Algebra for Computer Science This book is a comprehensive. Ok, that's a semi-important point for the physicist; Clifford algebra is _a_ generalization of complex numbers and quaternions. The idea of noncommutative geometry is to encode everything about the geometry of a space algebraically and then allow all commutative function algebras to be generalized to possibly non-commutative algebras. 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. So, I'm looking for some valid reasons why this This connection is, on the one hand, natural (a 4-year old can tell a circle from an oval from a square) and, on the other hand, deep (geometry is the indispensible apparatus of classical mechanics and other physics). Ironically the decline of geometry in schools was accompanied by the development and rise of key geometrical mathematical subjects of the 20th century, such as differential geometry, algebraic geometry (which used to be called projective geometry), While maths students spend less time on pure geometry, the physics community has slowly but steadly, starting with the pivotal work of Einstein, come to appreciate the close synthesis between geometry and physics.
