Geometric 3-space and multiplicative quaternions
Abstract
In this paper, we introduce a new vector space, the three-dimensional geometric real vector space ℝ3(G), and a new number system, multiplicative quaternions ℍ(G). We give some basic algebraic properties of these concepts. We define spatial rotation in ℝ3(G) by using multiplicative quaternions. Finally, we give an example to illustrate our results.
