then the article should at least also address this notation. The footnote nb2 is even worse. It seems garnished with categorical blurb which can be spelled out in more detail if one wants to and/or is able to. A mapping has a domain and a range, it is mathematical nonsense to talk of a mapping from one basis to another basis, since a basis is an ordered n-tuple of vectors in the finite case or a family of vectors in the general case. The trace is an operation which can be defined and is defined in WP on a square matrix in the finite case or on a trace-class linear operator in the general case, none of which is the case here. Traces, contractions, partial traces and operator invariants may be defined in all kinds of different manners in more complex ways of which one particular variant should apply here - but neither this article nor the trace articles in WP outline this. Defining a trace on a vector with matrix components or on tensors can be done but it can be done in different ways and therefore needs more notational clarity. An encyclopedia is - in my perception - an arena for those who want to learn and not a playground for those who believe they understood. I am not in the business of convincing anybody except my own mind, sorry, nobody is perfect. I am also not in the business of being convinced by numbers of people, and again I apologize for that as well if it is perceived as a deficit. I am aware of quite a number of people who struggle with quite a number of articles in WP/physics and WP/mathematics for which I have sympathy, particularly if things can be explained and are explained much clearer in many other places. I agree, however, that the various imprecisions in WP are very helpful in so far as they prompt the curious mind to find the mistakes and fix them for themselves.

in this theory, corresponding to the two inequivalent representations mentioned here. Mathematically - thanks for mentioning the Clifford-algebra here. The Pauli-matrices generate the real, associative Clifford-algebra over an Euclidean R (defined by a positive-definite real bilinear-form). There is an alternative on R with respect to an indefinite non-degenerate bilinear-form of signature (++-), with a two-dimensional representation by complex 2x2 matrices. These are given by an alternative to the Pauli-matrices, changing some signs. Another mathematical remark: With respect to the canonical bilinear-form trace(AB)-trace(A)trace(B) for matrices A,B ∈ C (i.e. square matrices), the 4-dimensional real vector-space, spanned by the 2x2 identity-matrix and the three Pauli-matrices is a real Minkowski-space with signature (+---). Sofar there is no physical meaning behind this, it is just „Zufall", like the other one, namely that the only unit-spheres S that are Lie-groups are those for n=1 and n=3. Taking the above alternative to the Pauli-matrices, this signature on the four dimensional vector-space becomes (++--).

is merely the historical usage of that term by Hamilton, it is not the geometric algebra usage if that's what you are thinking, personally I would remove that link). In any case, this point directly relates to my edit, if you follow that line of algebra, it a) is helping to show why Pauli "vectors" work as opposed to the non explanatory footnote above about being a "formal device" and b) it (and the quaternion stuff, suitably reworked and put in the proper sequence) leads quite naturally via the isomorphisms into a discussion of the spin operators (and thereby su2, although I can understand it if you would prefer not to proceeed in that manner). In any case I am not trying to communicate with everybody, I am simply adding another equally valid factorization of products which I would have thought a point of interest not something to be disparaged (as for whether it is "elegant" I will leave that for others to judge)

products, here is what some believe is a better way to play with them". This is a brief reminder to mainstream students of how to handle the symbols at hand, not an invitation to leave the page. I could see a footnote of this type in section 3.1, or 2.2 where it might not break the continuity. So I consider the attempt to steal eyeballs from here to promote alternate notations inappropriate. The reader going down the article is checking most steps for validity, or familiarity, and throwing a stumbling log at her/him is just not cool. I will let another editor remove the inappropriate paragraph, since we appear to have a self-entitled edit war brewing here.

(2) Please adjust WP user interface to put the burden of policy conforming editing on the machine instead of the user as every forum is able to do. (3) Please appreciate the statement by Wittgenstein that if one uses a language where things CAN be said/written clearly then one also should SAY/WRITE things clearly and not try to abuse the notation. (4) If insisting on such a particular (ab)use of trace, please amend WP article on trace to reflect this. (5) Probably there will be some way to turn 2550:
misleading, since both associative algebras have n-dimensional generalizations, and these are not isomorphic for higher dimensions, for instance in the case of Dirac-matrices. Relativistic physics neads Dirac matrices, which with respect to the above bilinear-form of matrices are a Minkowski-space as well. The same holds for the Duffin-Kemmer-Petiau matrices. So referring to this isomorphism makes sense only for the 2-dimensional case, corresponding to the fact, that simple Lie (and Jordan) algebras of lower dimensions collapse to only a few isomorphism classes.

rightly, each spinor corresponds to a point on the sphere, and is the state of the system with a definite spin in that direction. The components map to the Riemann sphere by dividing one component by the other. Explaining this in the article would explain how to find eigenvectors of linear combinations of Pauli matrices, which is important as these are the observable states for the observables these combinations represent. At the moment, the article only explains the eigenvectors of the Pauli matrices themselves.

or linear functions (and that's also how WP, correctly, introduces them). They can be extended to partial traces or contraction operators on more complicated linear objects, such as tensor products. These are more abstract things, which is why we use a different name for them. Ok, I agree that all of this can be repaired and rephrased so that it finally is correct. Things should be made as easy as possible - but not easier.

flow that I can see. I don't agree that this page is solely for mainstream students (of physics?) (I am not a mainstream student yet here I am on the page). If your objection is really about the wikified link to the geometric algebra page and although I do not really accept that a wikilink equates to stealing eyeballs nor that it amounts to an invitation to leave the page, I am quite happy to dewikify it and have done so.

Cool. "Vector of matrices". A vector is an abstract entity. There may be models of vector spaces with entries from a set, but in this case these entries are elements of a commutative field and not matrices. Matrices usually do not form fields and are not commutative. Traces are operations on matrices

The su2 (/so3)business is a bit awkward to deal with absent a sensible treatment of spinors (in a Pauli matrix context). In that sense, I agree that the section on quaternions, while relevant, does just appear to be sitting there in a sort of unrelated way(the link to "versor" is not useful as that

As somebody who doesn't have any text that covers this material I can't comment on how well used the Pauli vector concept is. If one's aim is to learn how to use the matrix algebra (ie: for things like rotations that aren't even covered in this article), I'd be inclined to define a vector in terms

As the Pauli matrices were developed in the study of spin 1/2 particles, I think the article should have a physics bias. I'd propose that the explanation of their use in physics be moved to be more prominent, and the interpretation of the two-component vectors/spinors be explained. If I understand

It makes NO SENSE not to have the higher spin matrices described. Even if you are so pedantic to not consider them pauli matrices (in contradiction to many standard texts), they are direct generalizations. For example, if I will google spin matrices, it leads me to this page.

As a new reader (despite already knowing clifford algebra) I found the commutator section exceptionally unclear. The Pauli vector was defined, but only by context could one see the mechanism that it provided to relate a vector to a "Pauli vector".

This article is far from being complete. The Pauli matrices play a big role in Quantum Information wich should be highlighted. This is a big mistake, because Quantum Information is one of the most clearest ways to understand Quantum Mechanics.

I think it may help eliminate confusion to use the normal convention of denoting Lie groups with uppercase letters and their corresponding Lie algebras with lowercase letters. I changed some instances that I noticed in the article. Thanks.
