in mathematics, a bivector is the vector part
in mathematics, a bivector is the vector part of a biquaternion. for biquaternion q = w + xi + yj + zk, w is called the biscalar and xi + yj + zk is its bivector part. the coordinates w, x, y, z are complex numbers with imaginary unit h: a bivector may be written as the sum of real and imaginary parts: where r 1 = x 1 ...
