Phase Space structure on Clifford Algebras
Abstract
I argue that the Hodge structure on a Euclidean Clifford algebra Cl(n) provides a way to generalise K\"ahler structure to higher dimensions, in the sense that the paired variables are now associated with k- and (n-k)- dimensional subspaces rather than with vectors. This puts a phase space structure on Clifford algebras, and so allows us to construct a Hamiltonian dynamics on these multilinear variables. This construction shows that alternating pairs of subspaces obey commuting and anticommuting dynamics, hinting that this construction is indeed a natural one, with interesting new behaviour.
