A Note on Quaternions over Commutative Rings
Abstract
The ring of quaternions is defined over the field of real numbers. This article extends that framework by defining quaternions over a class of commutative unital rings and generalising several of their properties. It also studies the properties of the unit group of quaternions over commutative rings with special attention to halidon rings.
