The Mathematics of Minkowski Space-Time


Add your own review!

Overview

This book arose out of original research on the extension of well-established applications of complex numbers related to Euclidean geometry and to the space-time symmetry of two-dimensional Special Relativity. The system of hyperbolic numbers is extensively studied, and a plain exposition of space-time geometry and trigonometry is given. Commutative hypercomplex systems with four unities are studied and attention is drawn to their interesting properties.

Reviews

From the reviews: It is worth pointing out that the book is mainly a text about commutative hypercomplex numbers and some of their applications to a 2-dimensional Minkowski spacetime. This book should be interesting to anybody who is interested in applications of hypercomplex numbers . In conclusion, I recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn about hypercomplex numbers.
