Quaternions and Special Relativity

De Leo, Stefano

Original · EN

We reformulate Special Relativity by a quaternionic algebra on reals. Using real linear quaternions, we show that previous difficulties, concerning the appropriate transformations on the 3+1 space-time, may be overcome. This implies that a complexified quaternionic version of Special Relativity is a choice and not a necessity.
