Holor

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A holor is a mathematical entity that is made up of one or more independent quantities, and includes complex numbers, scalars, vectors, matrices, tensors, quaternions, and other hypercomplex numbers. A holor is a generalized tensor; multiplying holors (tensor products) is done without regard to direction.

There is only one book on this topic. (See external link below.)
