Vector cross product in n-dimensional vector space

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

The definition of vector cross product (VCP) introduced by Eckmann only exists in thethree- and the seven- dimensional vector space. In this paper, according to the orthogonal completeness, magnitude of basis vector cross product and all kinds of combinations of basis vector e^i\hat{e}_i, the generalized definition of VCP in the odd n-dimensional vector space is given by introducing a cross term XABX_{AB}. In addition, the definition is validated by reducing the generalization definition to the fundamental three- and seven-dimensional vector space.
