Non-associative Algebra
Doubling refers to a process in algebra where the dimensionality of a number system is increased, typically by adding new elements to create an algebraic structure with richer properties. In the context of the Cayley-Dickson construction, this process is fundamental for generating new algebras from existing ones, enabling the formation of higher-dimensional algebras like quaternions and octonions through repeated applications of doubling.
congrats on reading the definition of Doubling. now let's actually learn it.
