GA Online Resources

GA Resources

Before getting into the links, I found a very good online list compiled by Pablo Bleyer Kocik containing many sources of information about Geometric Algebra. I highly recommend visiting his list.

 

Introductory Papers

  • “Geometric Algebra”, Eric Chisolm, 2012 (online)
  • “A Survey of Geometric Algebra and Geometric Calculus”, Alan Macdonald, 2016 (online)
  • “Geometric Algebra for Electrical and Electronic Engineers”, by James M. Chappell et. al., IEEE 2014 (online)
  • “Applications of Clifford’s Geometric Algebra”, Eckhard Hitzer, Tohru Nitta and Yasuaki Kuroe, 2013 (online)

Introductory Books

  • The simplest book to start from is “Understanding Geometric Algebra: Hamilton, Grassmann, and Clifford for Computer Vision and Graphics” by Kenichi Kanatani. (online)
  • “Geometric Algebra for Computer Science: An Object-Oriented Approach to Geometry” by Leo Dorst, Daniel Fontijne, and Stephen Mann (online), and (book website)
  • “Visualizing Quaternions” by Andrew J. Hanson (online)
  • “Geometric Algebra with Applications in Engineering” by Christian Perwass (online)

Important Web Pages \ Blogs

  • Geometric Calculus Research and Development (web page). Dr. David Hestenes page, chief architect of geometric algebra as a unified language for mathematics and physics.
  • The GA-Net Updates (web page) containing information about events, publications, and more regarding GA and its applications
  • Waterloo Computer Graphics Lab (online)
  • University of Cambridge Geometric Algebra (web page), created by Dr. Chris Doran and Professor Anthony Lasenby
  • Ian C. G. Bell’s “Math for Game Programmers” (web page), one of the oldest online pages (since 1998) containing good information about the mathematics and applications of GA
  • Dr. Dietmar Hildenbrand (web page) the creator of Gaalop (Geometric Algebra Algorithms Optimizer).
  • Three pages from Steven Lahar, an independent researcher with some radical ideas about harmonic resonance and spatial standing waves as the computational principle behind perception and cognition:
  • Applied Geometric Algebra in Computer Science and Engineering 2015 (online)
  • Eduardo Jose Bayro-Corrochano Page (online)
  • The Chair of Cognitive Systems, Prof. Dr. G. Sommer, Institute of Computer Science, Faculty of Engineering, Christian-Albrechts-University of Kiel (online)
  • Geometric Algebra Facebook Page (online)
  • GA Computing (web page) and (blog) by Ahmad Eid
  • The “EuclideanSpace – Mathematics and Computing” (web site). This site looks at mathematics and how it can be computed. It contains several (sections) on Geometric Algebra.
  • The Pre-University Geometric Algebra Linkedin Group (online). This group is a space for the sharing and collaborative development of resources for teaching GA at the high-school level. More advanced materials are welcome, especially if prepared with the additional intent of helping high-school students develop the abilities needed to understand and do such work themselves within a few years.
