Ring $R_{ 152 }$

$C\ell_{2,1}(\mathbb R)$: the geometric algebra of Minkowski 3-space

Description:

The Clifford algebra of a $3$ dimensional $\mathbb R$ vector space with bilinear form having signature $(+1,+1,-1)$. This algebra is isomorphic to $M_2(\mathbb R)\times M_2(\mathbb R)$. In addition to being viewed as a "geometric algebra" for the space, it can also be viewed as the "conformal geometric algebra" for a $1$ dimensional real vector space.
