Metric Clifford Algebra

In this paper we introduce the concept of metric Clifford algebra $\mathcal{C\ell}(V,g)$ for a $n$-dimensional real vector space $V$ endowed with a metric extensor $g$ whose signature is $(p,q)$, with $p+q=n$. The metric Clifford product on $\mathcal{C\ell}(V,g)$ appears as a well-defined \emph{deformation}(induced by $g$) of an euclidean Clifford product on $\mathcal{C\ell}(V)$. Associated with the metric extensor $g,$ there is a gauge metric extensor $h$ which codifies all the geometric information just contained in $g.$ The precise form of such $h$ is here determined. Moreover, we present and give a proof of the so-called \emph{golden formula,} which is important in many applications that naturally appear in ours studies of multivector functions, and differential geometry and theoretical physics.
