Quaternions in Collective Dynamics [PDF]
We introduce a model of multiagent dynamics for self-organized motion; individuals travel at a constant speed while trying to adopt the averaged body attitude of their neighbors. The body attitudes are represented through unitary quaternions.

Instantons and quaternions [PDF]
We relate the moduli space of Yang-Mills instantons to quaternionic manifolds. For instanton number one, the Wolf spaces play an important role. We apply these ideas to instanton calculations in N=4 SYM theory.

Quaternions and the “Ausdehnungslehre” [PDF]
THE year 1844 is memorable in the annals of mathematics on account of the first appearance on the printed page of Hamilton's “Quaternions” and Grassmann's “Ausdehnungslehre.” The former appeared in the July, October, and supplementary numbers of the Philosophical Magazine, after a previous communication to the Royal Irish Academy, November 13, 1843 ...

Obtaining the Parametric Equation of the Curve of the Sun’s Apparent Movement by Using Quaternions
The purpose of this article is to express the daily and yearly apparent movement of the Sun in the same curve by using quaternions as a rotation operator.

A Survey on the Computation of Quaternions From Rotation Matrices
The parameterization of rotations is a central topic in many theoretical and applied fields such as rigid body mechanics, multibody dynamics, robotics, spacecraft attitude dynamics, navigation, three-dimensional image processing, and computer graphics ...

Quaternionic reduction and quaternionic orbifolds
On considere un processus de reduction pour des varietes de Kahler quaternioniques. On montre qu'il existe dans ce cas une certaine application impulsion qui se reduit a celle classique quand la courbure scalaire K de l'espace est zero (et les metriques deviennent hyperkahler).

Chirality in a quaternionic representation of the genetic code [PDF]
A quaternionic representation of the genetic code, previously reported by the authors, is updated in order to incorporate chirality of nucleotide bases and amino acids.
