The biquaternions and their algebra represent the formalism of the usual quantum mechanics: the statements of the usual quantum mechanics are statements of the biquaternions and their algebra; - the next step signed the very innovative turning-point of our research.
In particular, the important result to have used LHBT with UU+# 1 and UU+ = I, I being a new generalized unity, is that all the basic physical laws of quantum mechanics are generalized respect to the particular level of physical reality that is representedby the functional l = l(....).
When we speak about quantum mechanics as it was formulated in 1927, we have always to remember that it is not the general theory of the microphysical world; it is the theory that was originally conceived for the structure of the atoms, and for the electromagnetic interactions at large.

In mathematics, a biquaternion (or complex quaternion) is an element of the quaternion algebra over the complex numbers.
The algebra of biquaternions can be consider as a tensor product C⊗H where C is the field of complex numbers and H is the algebra of real quaternions.

  Science Fair Projects - Biquaternion
In mathematics, a biquaternion is a numeric and geometric concept developed by William Kingdon Clifford, William Rowan Hamilton, and Alexander MacAuley in the nineteenth century.
The collection of all biquaternions forms a vector space of four complex dimensions or eight real dimensions.
Then {a + b ι j : a, b ∈ R } is a subring of biquaternions isomorphic to the split-complex number ring.

  Hypercomplex number - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
While for Cayley-Dickson constructs, split-complex algebra, and Clifford algebra all non-real bases are anti-commutative, use of a commutative imaginary base leads to four dimensional Tessarines, eight dimensional biquaternions, and 16 dimensional conic sedenions.
Tessarines offer a commutative and associative multiplication, biquaternions are associative but not commutative, and conic sedenions are not associative and not commutative.
Biquaternions contain nilpotents, conic sedenions are also not power associative.

In mathematics, a biquaternion (or complex quaternion) is an element of the (unique) quaternion algebra over the complex numbers.
The algebra of biquaternions can be consider as a tensor product C⊗H (taken over the reals) where C is the field of complex numbers and H is the algebra of real quaternions.
The actual exhibition of individual Lorentz transformations involves extensions of inner automorphisms of the group of units of biquaternions to the singular elements through inversive ring geometry.

As we have shown in (Conte, 1994c), the biquaternion quantum mechanics uses Lin ear Homogeneous Biquaternion Transformations, LHBT (.,.,.), to generalize the s tatements of the usual quantum mechanics.
The way to gene ralize Schrödinger's equation by biquaternions implies necessarily to consider that the new quantization, instead of Planck's constant, becomes a dynamical va riable in the induced quantum theory.
As consequence,this new theory, generaliz ed with respect to the usual quantum mechanics, is finalized to analyze physica l systems where it is of importance to examine the consequences of quantum fluc tuations I in the quantum of action h.

 Clifford biquaternion Information
A Clifford biquaternion is a concept from geometric algebra.
The idea is to replace the complex numbers used in an ordinary (Hamilton) biquaternion with split-complex numbers.Thus q = w + x i + y j + z k, with w, x, y, z ∈ D is a Clifford biquaternion.
The collection of all Clifford biquaternions forms a Clifford algebra of dimension 8 over the real line R.

 The Work of W.K. Clifford
This geometry was an extension of his algebra of biquaternions.
Both systems, the new geometry and biquaternions, made use of Clifford's concept of geometric parallelism whereby parallel lines need not exist in the same plane.
Clifford could not have known that his new geometry was far too advanced for a scientific community that was just beginning to cope with the repercussions pursuant to the discovery of ordinary non-Euclidean geometries.

The effects in that space correspond to a Lorentz boost of velocity parameter 2β along the given direction, or a rotation of angle 2φ about the given axis.
These transformations may also be written as biquaternions (quaternions with complex elements), where the elements are related to the Jones matrix in the same way that the Stokes parameters are related to the coherency matrix.
They may then be applied in pre- and post-multiplication to the quaternion representation of the coherency matrix, with the usual exploitation of the quaternion exponential for performing rotations and boosts taking a form equivalent to the matrix exponential equations above (See: Quaternion rotation).

 The revealed secrets of classical electrodynamics
(Bi)quaternion numbers and quaternion calculus were discovered by Rowan Hamilton and is very suitable for expressing 4-vectors or 8-vectors.
Keep in mind that one biquaternion equations is in fact a compact notation of two scalar equations (real scalar equals real scalar and imaginary scalar equals imaginary scalar) and two vector equations (real vector equals real vector and imaginary vector equals imaginary vector).
Maxwell's original theory was formulated in quaternion form as well, however, his theory did not include the scalar field S as defined in equation (3).
