[mathpart octonions Octonions]
[section:oct_overview Overview]
Octonions, like [link quaternions quaternions], are a relative of complex numbers.
Octonions see some use in theoretical physics.
In practical terms, an octonion is simply an octuple of real numbers __octulple,
which we can write in the form __oct_formula, where ['[^i]], ['[^j]] and ['[^k]]
are the same objects as for quaternions, and ['[^e']], ['[^i']], ['[^j']] and ['[^k']]
are distinct objects which play essentially the same kind of role as ['[^i]] (or ['[^j]] or ['[^k]]).
Addition and a multiplication is defined on the set of octonions,
which generalize their quaternionic counterparts. The main novelty this time
is that [*the multiplication is not only not commutative, is now not even
associative] (i.e. there are octonions ['[^x]], ['[^y]] and ['[^z]] such that __oct_not_equal).
A way of remembering things is by using the following multiplication table:
[$../octonion/graphics/octonion_blurb17.jpeg]
Octonions (and their kin) are described in far more details in this other
[@../quaternion/TQE.pdf document]
(with [@../quaternion/TQE_EA.pdf errata and addenda]).
Some traditional constructs, such as the exponential, carry over without too
much change into the realms of octonions, but other, such as taking a square root,
do not (the fact that the exponential has a closed form is a result of the
author, but the fact that the exponential exists at all for octonions is known
since quite a long time ago).

A default constructor is provided for each form, which initializes each component
to the default values for their type (i.e. zero for floating numbers).
This constructor can also accept one to eight base type arguments.
A constructor is also provided to build octonions from one to four complex numbers
sharing the same base type, and another taking one or two quaternions
sharing the same base type. The unspecialized template also sports a
templarized copy constructor, while the specialized forms have copy
constructors from the other two specializations, which are explicit
when a risk of precision loss exists. For the unspecialized form,
the base type's constructors must not throw.
Destructors and untemplated copy constructors (from the same type)
are provided by the compiler. Converting copy constructors make use
of a templated helper function in a "detail" subnamespace.
[h3 Other member functions]
[h4 Real and Unreal Parts]
T real() const;
octonion<T> unreal() const;
Like complex number, octonions do have a meaningful notion of "real part",
but unlike them there is no meaningful notion of "imaginary part".
Instead there is an "unreal part" which itself is a octonion,
and usually nothing simpler (as opposed to the complex number case).
These are returned by the first two functions.
[h4 Individual Real Components]
T R_component_1() const;
T R_component_2() const;
T R_component_3() const;
T R_component_4() const;
T R_component_5() const;
T R_component_6() const;
T R_component_7() const;
T R_component_8() const;
A octonion having eight real components, these are returned by
these eight functions. Hence real and R_component_1 return the same value.
[h4 Individual Complex Components]
::std::complex<T> C_component_1() const;
::std::complex<T> C_component_2() const;
::std::complex<T> C_component_3() const;
::std::complex<T> C_component_4() const;
A octonion likewise has four complex components. Actually, octonions
are indeed a (left) vector field over the complexes, but beware, as
for any octonion __oct_formula we also have __oct_complex_formula
(note the [*minus] sign in the last factor).
What the C_component_n functions return, however, are the complexes
which could be used to build the octonion using the constructor, and
[*not] the components of the octonion on the basis ['[^(1, j, e', j')]].
[h4 Individual Quaternion Components]
::boost::math::quaternion<T> H_component_1() const;
::boost::math::quaternion<T> H_component_2() const;
Likewise, for any octonion __oct_formula we also have __oct_quat_formula, though there
is no meaningful vector-space-like structure based on the quaternions.
What the H_component_n functions return are the quaternions which
could be used to build the octonion using the constructor.
[h3 Octonion Member Operators]
[h4 Assignment Operators]
octonion<T> & operator = (octonion<T> const & a_affecter);
template<typename X>
octonion<T> & operator = (octonion<X> const & a_affecter);
octonion<T> & operator = (T const & a_affecter);
octonion<T> & operator = (::std::complex<T> const & a_affecter);
octonion<T> & operator = (::boost::math::quaternion<T> const & a_affecter);
These perform the expected assignment, with type modification if
necessary (for instance, assigning from a base type will set the
real part to that value, and all other components to zero).
For the unspecialized form, the base type's assignment operators must not throw.
[h4 Other Member Operators]
octonion<T> & operator += (T const & rhs)
octonion<T> & operator += (::std::complex<T> const & rhs);
octonion<T> & operator += (::boost::math::quaternion<T> const & rhs);
template<typename X>
octonion<T> & operator += (octonion<X> const & rhs);
These perform the mathematical operation `(*this)+rhs` and store the result in
`*this`. The unspecialized form has exception guards, which the specialized
forms do not, so as to insure exception safety. For the unspecialized form,
the base type's assignment operators must not throw.
octonion<T> & operator -= (T const & rhs)
octonion<T> & operator -= (::std::complex<T> const & rhs);
octonion<T> & operator -= (::boost::math::quaternion<T> const & rhs);
template<typename X>
octonion<T> & operator -= (octonion<X> const & rhs);
These perform the mathematical operation `(*this)-rhs` and store the result
in `*this`. The unspecialized form has exception guards, which the
specialized forms do not, so as to insure exception safety.
For the unspecialized form, the base type's assignment operators must not throw.
octonion<T> & operator *= (T const & rhs)
octonion<T> & operator *= (::std::complex<T> const & rhs);
octonion<T> & operator *= (::boost::math::quaternion<T> const & rhs);
template<typename X>
octonion<T> & operator *= (octonion<X> const & rhs);
These perform the mathematical operation `(*this)*rhs` in this order
(order is important as multiplication is not commutative for octonions)
and store the result in `*this`. The unspecialized form has exception guards,
which the specialized forms do not, so as to insure exception safety.
For the unspecialized form, the base type's assignment operators must
not throw. Also, for clarity's sake, you should always group the
factors in a multiplication by groups of two, as the multiplication is
not even associative on the octonions (though there are of course cases
where this does not matter, it usually does).
octonion<T> & operator /= (T const & rhs)
octonion<T> & operator /= (::std::complex<T> const & rhs);
octonion<T> & operator /= (::boost::math::quaternion<T> const & rhs);
template<typename X>
octonion<T> & operator /= (octonion<X> const & rhs);
These perform the mathematical operation `(*this)*inverse_of(rhs)`
in this order (order is important as multiplication is not commutative
for octonions) and store the result in `*this`. The unspecialized form
has exception guards, which the specialized forms do not, so as to
insure exception safety. For the unspecialized form, the base
type's assignment operators must not throw. As for the multiplication,
remember to group any two factors using parenthesis.

template<typename T> octonion<T> operator - (octonion<T> const & lhs, octonion<T> const & rhs);
These operators return `octonion<T>(lhs) -= rhs`.
[h4 Binary Multiplication Operators]

template<typename T> octonion<T> operator * (octonion<T> const & lhs, octonion<T> const & rhs);
These operators return `octonion<T>(lhs) *= rhs`.
[h4 Binary Division Operators]
template<typename T> octonion<T> operator / (T const & lhs, octonion<T> const & rhs);
template<typename T> octonion<T> operator / (octonion<T> const & lhs, T const & rhs);
template<typename T> octonion<T> operator / (::std::complex<T> const & lhs, octonion<T> const & rhs);

template<typename T> octonion<T> operator / (octonion<T> const & lhs, octonion<T> const & rhs);
These operators return `octonion<T>(lhs) /= rhs`. It is of course still an
error to divide by zero...
[h4 Binary Equality Operators]
template<typename T> bool operator == (T const & lhs, octonion<T> const & rhs);
template<typename T> bool operator == (octonion<T> const & lhs, T const & rhs);
template<typename T> bool operator == (::std::complex<T> const & lhs, octonion<T> const & rhs);

template<typename T> bool operator == (octonion<T> const & lhs, ::boost::math::quaternion<T> const & rhs);
template<typename T> bool operator == (octonion<T> const & lhs, octonion<T> const & rhs);
These return true if and only if the four components of `octonion<T>(lhs)`
are equal to their counterparts in `octonion<T>(rhs)`. As with any
floating-type entity, this is essentially meaningless.

template<typename T> bool operator != (octonion<T> const & lhs, T const & rhs);
template<typename T> bool operator != (::std::complex<T> const & lhs, octonion<T> const & rhs);
template<typename T> bool operator != (octonion<T> const & lhs, ::std::complex<T> const & rhs);
template<typename T> bool operator != (::boost::math::quaternion<T> const & lhs, octonion<T> const & rhs);
template<typename T> bool operator != (octonion<T> const & lhs, ::boost::math::quaternion<T> const & rhs);
template<typename T> bool operator != (octonion<T> const & lhs, octonion<T> const & rhs);
These return true if and only if `octonion<T>(lhs) == octonion<T>(rhs)`
is false. As with any floating-type entity, this is essentially meaningless.
[h4 Stream Extractor]
template<typename T, typename charT, class traits>
::std::basic_istream<charT,traits> & operator >> (::std::basic_istream<charT,traits> & is, octonion<T> & o);
Extracts an octonion `o`. We accept any format which seems reasonable.
However, since this leads to a great many ambiguities, decisions were made
to lift these. In case of doubt, stick to lists of reals.
The input values must be convertible to T. If bad input is encountered,
calls `is.setstate(ios::failbit)` (which may throw `ios::failure` (27.4.5.3)).
Returns `is`.
[h4 Stream Inserter]
template<typename T, typename charT, class traits>
::std::basic_ostream<charT,traits> & operator << (::std::basic_ostream<charT,traits> & os, octonion<T> const & o);
Inserts the octonion `o` onto the stream `os` as if it were implemented as follows:
template<typename T, typename charT, class traits>
::std::basic_ostream<charT,traits> & operator << ( ::std::basic_ostream<charT,traits> & os,
octonion<T> const & o)
{
::std::basic_ostringstream<charT,traits> s;
s.flags(os.flags());
s.imbue(os.getloc());
s.precision(os.precision());
s << '(' << o.R_component_1() << ','
<< o.R_component_2() << ','
<< o.R_component_3() << ','
<< o.R_component_4() << ','
<< o.R_component_5() << ','
<< o.R_component_6() << ','
<< o.R_component_7() << ','
<< o.R_component_8() << ')';
return os << s.str();
}

[section:oct_value_ops Octonion Value Operations]
[h4 Real and Unreal]
template<typename T> T real(octonion<T> const & o);
template<typename T> octonion<T> unreal(octonion<T> const & o);
These return `o.real()` and `o.unreal()` respectively.
[h4 conj]
template<typename T> octonion<T> conj(octonion<T> const & o);
This returns the conjugate of the octonion.
[h4 sup]
template<typename T> T sup(octonion<T> const & o);
This return the sup norm (the greatest among
`abs(o.R_component_1())...abs(o.R_component_8()))` of the octonion.
[h4 l1]
template<typename T> T l1(octonion<T> const & o);
This return the l1 norm (`abs(o.R_component_1())+...+abs(o.R_component_8())`)
of the octonion.
[h4 abs]
template<typename T> T abs(octonion<T> const & o);
This return the magnitude (Euclidian norm) of the octonion.
[h4 norm]
template<typename T> T norm(octonion<T>const & o);
This return the (Cayley) norm of the octonion. The term "norm" might
be confusing, as most people associate it with the Euclidian norm
(and quadratic functionals). For this version of (the mathematical
objects known as) octonions, the Euclidian norm (also known as
magnitude) is the square root of the Cayley norm.
[endsect]
[section:oct_create Octonion Creation Functions]
template<typename T> octonion<T> spherical(T const & rho, T const & theta, T const & phi1, T const & phi2, T const & phi3, T const & phi4, T const & phi5, T const & phi6);
template<typename T> octonion<T> multipolar(T const & rho1, T const & theta1, T const & rho2, T const & theta2, T const & rho3, T const & theta3, T const & rho4, T const & theta4);
template<typename T> octonion<T> cylindrical(T const & r, T const & angle, T const & h1, T const & h2, T const & h3, T const & h4, T const & h5, T const & h6);
These build octonions in a way similar to the way polar builds
complex numbers, as there is no strict equivalent to
polar coordinates for octonions.
`spherical` is a simple transposition of `polar`, it takes as inputs a
(positive) magnitude and a point on the hypersphere, given
by three angles. The first of these, ['theta] has a natural range of
-pi to +pi, and the other two have natural ranges of
-pi/2 to +pi/2 (as is the case with the usual spherical
coordinates in __R3). Due to the many symmetries and periodicities,
nothing untoward happens if the magnitude is negative or the angles are
outside their natural ranges. The expected degeneracies (a magnitude of
zero ignores the angles settings...) do happen however.
`cylindrical` is likewise a simple transposition of the usual
cylindrical coordinates in __R3, which in turn is another derivative of
planar polar coordinates. The first two inputs are the polar
coordinates of the first __C component of the octonion. The third and
fourth inputs are placed into the third and fourth __R components of the
octonion, respectively.
`multipolar` is yet another simple generalization of polar coordinates.
This time, both __C components of the octonion are given in polar coordinates.
In this version of our implementation of octonions, there is no
analogue of the complex value operation arg as the situation is
somewhat more complicated.
[endsect]
[section:oct_trans Octonions Transcendentals]
There is no `log` or `sqrt` provided for octonions in this implementation,
and `pow` is likewise restricted to integral powers of the exponent.
There are several reasons to this: on the one hand, the equivalent of
analytic continuation for octonions ("branch cuts") remains to be
investigated thoroughly (by me, at any rate...), and we wish to avoid
the nonsense introduced in the standard by exponentiations of
complexes by complexes (which is well defined, but not in the standard...).
Talking of nonsense, saying that `pow(0,0)` is "implementation defined" is
just plain brain-dead...
We do, however provide several transcendentals, chief among which is
the exponential. That it allows for a "closed formula" is a result
of the author (the existence and definition of the exponential, on the
octonions among others, on the other hand, is a few centuries old).
Basically, any converging power series with real coefficients which
allows for a closed formula in __C can be transposed to __O. More
transcendentals of this type could be added in a further revision upon
request. It should be noted that it is these functions which force the
dependency upon the
[@../../../../boost/math/special_functions/sinc.hpp boost/math/special_functions/sinc.hpp]
and the
[@../../../../boost/math/special_functions/sinhc.hpp boost/math/special_functions/sinhc.hpp]
headers.
[h4 exp]
template<typename T>
octonion<T> exp(octonion<T> const & o);
Computes the exponential of the octonion.
[h4 cos]
template<typename T>
octonion<T> cos(octonion<T> const & o);
Computes the cosine of the octonion
[h4 sin]
template<typename T>
octonion<T> sin(octonion<T> const & o);
Computes the sine of the octonion.
[h4 tan]
template<typename T>
octonion<T> tan(octonion<T> const & o);
Computes the tangent of the octonion.
[h4 cosh]
template<typename T>
octonion<T> cosh(octonion<T> const & o);
Computes the hyperbolic cosine of the octonion.
[h4 sinh]
template<typename T>
octonion<T> sinh(octonion<T> const & o);
Computes the hyperbolic sine of the octonion.
[h4 tanh]
template<typename T>
octonion<T> tanh(octonion<T> const & o);
Computes the hyperbolic tangent of the octonion.
[h4 pow]
template<typename T>
octonion<T> pow(octonion<T> const & o, int n);
Computes the n-th power of the octonion q.

[section:oct_tests Test Program]
The [@../../test/octonion_test.cpp octonion_test.cpp]
test program tests octonions specialisations for float, double and long double
([@../octonion/output.txt sample output]).
If you define the symbol BOOST_OCTONION_TEST_VERBOSE, you will get additional
output ([@../octonion/output_more.txt verbose output]); this will
only be helpfull if you enable message output at the same time, of course
(by uncommenting the relevant line in the test or by adding --log_level=messages
to your command line,...). In that case, and if you are running interactively,
you may in addition define the symbol BOOST_INTERACTIVE_TEST_INPUT_ITERATOR to
interactively test the input operator with input of your choice from the
standard input (instead of hard-coding it in the test).
