Overview

Beyond Pseudo-Rotations in Pseudo-Euclidean Spaces presents for the first time a unified study of the Lorentz transformation group SO(m, n) of signature (m, n), m, n ? N, which is fully analogous to the Lorentz group SO(1, 3) of Einstein’s special theory of relativity. It is based on a novel parametric realization of pseudo-rotations by a vector-like parameter with two orientation parameters. The book is of interest to specialized researchers in the areas of algebra, geometry and mathematical physics, containing new results that suggest further exploration in these areas.

Reviews

This monograph is a synthesis of the author's work on gyrogroups and gyrovector spaces (since 1988) as well as on their generalizations, the bi-gyrogroups and bi-gyrovector spaces. ...This very original but highly technical book starts with an interesting modelization of the Einstein addition of the velocities in the relativistic setting, by considering it as the (nonassociative) composition law of a special groupoid, called gyrogroup. --zbMATh
