Sedenions

ImprimirCitar

The sedenions form a 16-dimensional algebra over the real numbers and are obtained by applying the Cayley-Dickson Construction on the octonions.

As in the octonions, the multiplication of sedenions is neither commutative nor associative. But unlike the octonions, the sedenions do not even have the property of being an alternative algebra. However, they have the property of being power-associative.

Sedenions have 1 as a neutral element and inverses for multiplication, but they are not a division algebra, since they have divisors of zero.

Every sedenion is a linear combination of the unitary sedenions 1, e1, e2, e3, e4, e5, e6, e7, e8, e9 , e10, e11, e 12, e13, e14 and e >15, which form the basis of the vector space of the sedenions. The multiplication table of these unit sedenions is as follows.
