Exterior products
The exterior product is the fundamental product of Grassmann Algebra, and it forms part of the geometric product in geometric algebra. There are two products with symmetric properties called the exterior product and exterior antiproduct.
Exterior Product
The following Cayley table shows the exterior products between all pairs of basis elements in the 5D conformal geometric algebra $$\mathcal G_{4,1}$$.
Exterior Antiproduct
The following Cayley table shows the exterior antiproducts between all pairs of basis elements in the 5D conformal geometric algebra $$\mathcal G_{4,1}$$.
De Morgan Laws
We can express the product and antiproduct in terms of each other through an analog of De Morgan's laws as follows.
- $$\overline{\mathbf a \wedge \mathbf b} = \overline{\mathbf{a\vphantom{b}}} \vee \overline{\mathbf b}$$
- $$\overline{\mathbf a \vee \mathbf b} = \overline{\mathbf{a\vphantom{b}}} \wedge \overline{\mathbf b}$$
- $$\underline{\mathbf a \wedge \mathbf b} = \underline{\mathbf{a\vphantom{b}}} \vee \underline{\mathbf b}$$
- $$\underline{\mathbf a \vee \mathbf b} = \underline{\mathbf{a\vphantom{b}}} \wedge \underline{\mathbf b}$$
