Geometric algebra is a powerful mathematical language with applications across a range of subjects in physics and engineering. This book is a complete guide to the current state of the subject with early chapters providing a self-contained introduction to geometric algebra. Topics covered include new techniques for handling rotations in arbitrary dimensions, and the links between rotations, bivectors and the structure of the Lie groups. Following chapters extend the concept of a complex analytic function theory to arbitrary dimensions, with applications in quantum theory and electromagnetism. Later chapters cover advanced topics such as non-Euclidean geometry, quantum entanglement, and gauge theories. Applications such as black holes and cosmic strings are also explored. It can be used as a graduate text for courses on the physical applications of geometric algebra and is also suitable for researchers working in the fields of relativity and quantum theory.

This book provides the mathematical background required for the study of fractal topics. It deals with integration in the modern sense and with mathematical probability. The emphasis is on the particular results that aid the discussion of fractals. The book follows on Edgar''s Measure, Topology, and Fractal Geometry. With exercises throughout the text, it is ideal for beginning graduate students both in the classroom setting and for self-study.
