Complex numbers seem to have an almost mystical aura surrounding them. Perhaps it’s because of the terminology used for them – for example, they have a ‘real part’ and an ‘imaginary part’, and they ...

An international team of researchers shows through a concrete theoretical experiment that the prediction by standard complex quantum theory cannot be expressed by its real counterpart and ratifies its ...

Hypercomplex numbers extend the concept of complex numbers by adding additional dimensions to the imaginary part. Instead of points on a two-dimensional plane, they therefore represent points in multi ...
