We use it as a bridge to a Clifford algebraic quantum logic that is richer than the usual Hilbert space quantum logic and admits iteration. This leads to a higher-order Clifford-algebraic logic. We formulate a toy Dirac equation with this logic. It isexactly Lorentz-invariant, yet it approximates the usual Dirac equation as closely as desired and all its variables have finite spectra. It is worth considering as a Lorentz-invariant improvement on lattice space-times.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2004-11-30T18:35:11.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "elementary operations", "usual hilbert space quantum logic", "clifford algebraic quantum logic", "higher-order clifford-algebraic logic", "toy dirac equation" ], "tags": [ "conference paper" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2004quant.ph.11213B" } } }
