    • Spin representations and binary numbers 

      Winther, Henrik (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024)
      We consider a construction of the fundamental spin representations of the simple Lie algebras so(n) in terms of binary arithmetic of fixed width integers. This gives the spin matrices as a Lie subalgebra of a Z-graded associative algebra (rather than the usual N-filtered Clifford algebra). Our description gives a quick way to write down the spin matrices, and gives a way to encode some extra structure, ...
