Abstract

In this paper, we establish a complex matrix representation of the Clifford algebra Cℓp,q. The size of our representation is significantly smaller than the size of the elements in Lp,q(ℝ). Additionally, we give detailed information about the spectrum of the constructed matrix representation.
