Quaternionic representation — In mathematical field of representation theory, a quaternionic representation is a representation on a complex vector space V with an invariant quaternionic structure, i.e., an antilinear equivariant map:jcolon V o V, which satisfies:j^2=… … Wikipedia
Quaternionic projective space — In mathematics, quaternionic projective space is an extension of the ideas of real projective space and complex projective space, to the case where coordinates lie in the ring of quaternions H. Quaternionic projective space of dimension n is… … Wikipedia
Quaternionic vector space — A left (or right) quaternionic vector space is a left (or right) H module where H denotes the noncommutative ring of the quaternions.The space H n of n tuples of quaternions is both a left and right H module using the componentwise left and right … Wikipedia

Real representation — In the mathematical field of representation theory a real representation is usually a representation on a real vector space U , but it can also mean a representation on a complex vector space V with an invariant real structure, i.e., an… … Wikipedia
Bott periodicity theorem — In mathematics, the Bott periodicity theorem is a result from homotopy theory discovered by Raoul Bott during the latter part of the 1950s, which proved to be of foundational significance for much further research, in particular in K theory of… … Wikipedia
Quaternion-Kähler manifold — In differential geometry, a quaternion Kähler manifold (or quaternionic Kähler manifold) is a Riemannian manifold whose Riemannian holonomy group is a subgroup of Sp( n )·Sp(1). Another, more explicit, definition, uses a 3 dimensional subbundle H … Wikipedia
