C++ Template Classes for Geometric Algebras:

The Geometric or Clifford algebras have a variety of applications in physics and computer vision and other places. There are other resources on the web for dealing with Clifford algebras in Maple and Java. As far as we know, this is the first publically available set of C++ template classes to implement them.

Feedback of any sort is welcome to geoma@nklein.com

v1.2.2007.08.20

This version is simply some patches to get it to compile with newer versions of g++.

The documentation and its gpg signature.
The source code and its gpg signature.

v1.1.2005.01.13

This version allows you to take the wedge product of multivectors.

The documentation and its gpg signature.
The source code and its gpg signature.
The source code for a 7-d cross-product calculator that uses the library.

v1.0.2000.05.17

The documentation and its gpg signature.
The source code and its gpg signature.
The source code for a fractal generator that uses the library. By default, it generates Mandelbrot sets. But, with the option "-indices 1 6" it generates another nice fractal shown below.
