Scaffolding of Spacetime
Abstract
The mathematical foundations of relativistic quantum mechanics is largely based upon the discovery of the Pauli and Dirac matrices. An algebra which lies at an even more fundamental level is the geometric Clifford algebra with metric signature (2,3)=(++---). In this geometric algebra both the fundamental Pauli vectors of space and the Dirac vectors of spacetime are factored into complex bivectors.
