Clifford module
In mathematics, a Clifford module is a representation of a Clifford algebra. In general a Clifford algebra ''C'' is a central simple algebra over some field extension ''L'' of the field ''K'' over which the quadratic form ''Q'' defining ''C'' is defined.
The abstract theory of Clifford modules was founded by a paper of M. F. Atiyah, R. Bott and Arnold S. Shapiro. A fundamental result on Clifford modules is that the Morita equivalence class of a Clifford algebra (the equivalence class of the category of Clifford modules over it) depends only on the signature . This is an algebraic form of Bott periodicity.
==Matrix representations of real Clifford algebras==
We will need to study ''anticommuting'' matrices (''AB'' = −''BA'') because in Clifford algebras orthogonal vectors anticommute
: A \cdot B = \frac( AB + BA ) = 0.
For the real Clifford algebra \mathbb_\,, we need ''p'' + ''q'' mutually anticommuting matrices, of which ''p'' have +1 as square and ''q'' have −1 as square.
: \begin
\gamma_a^2 &=& +1 &\mbox &1 \le a \le p \\
\gamma_a^2 &=& -1 &\mbox &p+1 \le a \le p+q\\
\gamma_a \gamma_b &=& -\gamma_b \gamma_a &\mbox &a \ne b. \ \\
\end
Such a basis of gamma matrices is not unique. One can always obtain another set of gamma matrices satisfying the same Clifford algebra by means of a similarity transformation.
: \begin
\gamma_ &=& S &\gamma_ &S^
\end

where S is a non-singular matrix. The sets γ a' and γ a belong to the same equivalence class.
