Geometric Algebra: Parallel Processing for the Mind Timothy F. Havel Tue Jan 9, Thu Jan 11, Tue Jan 16, Thu Jan 18, 04:30-06:00pm, NW14-1112 No limit but advance sign up required (see contact below) Participants requested to attend all sessions (non-series) Prereq: 2 years of Calculus & Linear Algebra Geometric algebra is a natural extension of vector algebra to metric geometries of arbitrary dimension, signature and curvature. A growing numbers of scholars have come to view it as a universal geometric language encompassing most of physics and much of mathematics. These four lectures will give a light introduction to the subject and some of its many applications, including molecular conformation, NMR spectroscopy, and quantum computing.
