The conjugate of a quaternion a=a_1+a_2i+a_3j+a_4k is defined by a^_=a_1-a_2i-a_3j-a_4k.

The norm n(a) of a quaternion a=a_1+a_2i+a_3j+a_4k is defined by n(a)=sqrt(aa^_)=sqrt(a^_a)=sqrt(a_1^2+a_2^2+a_3^2+a_4^2), where a^_=a_1-a_2i-a_3j-a_4k is the quaternion ...

A module taking its coefficients in a ring R is called a module over R or R-module.

A sequence produced by the instructions "reverse, add to the original, then sort the digits." For example, after 668, the next iteration is given by 668+866=1534, so the next ...
