Hello,
I see a lot of people enthusiastic about Clifford algebra and its future role for physics, yet I also see a lot of people frustrated opinions about it. Contents in the internet seems really really small compared with other mathematical topics, not to mention less books about it.
All this makes me less confident about learning this topic.
Well, this is what I feel honestly! Now I can ask some questions.
1 Does Clifford algebra brings any good to physics or is it just reformulation?
2 If it did/does, then in what areas of physics does Clifford algebra work as master tool above all others. (I will appreciate it if you provided me with resources, especially scientific papers)
--------------------------------------
Background: I am an undergraduate physics student "interested in mathematical physics" considering taking my senior project on Clifford algebra. My supervisor is really enthusiastic about, but I feel that it might not be a good project! Since I am not yet convinced with it, because of all the controversial opinions in the internet.
