Algebraic Construction for Dual Quaternions with GCN

Algebraic Construction for Dual Quaternions with GCN

In this paper, we explain how dual quaternion theory can extend to dual quaternions with generalized complex number (GCN) components. More specifically, we algebraically examine this new type dual quaternion and give several matrix representations both as a dual quaternion and asa GCN.
