Abstract

For a given Hurwitz pair $[S(Q_{S}),V(Q_{V}),o]$ the existence of a bilinear mapping $⭑: C(Q_{S}) × C(Q_{V}) → C(Q_{V})$ (where $C(Q_{S})$ and $C(Q_{V}$) denote the Clifford algebras of the quadratic forms $Q_{S}$ and $Q_{V}$, respectively) generated by the Hurwitz multiplication "o" is proved and the counterpart of the Hurwitz condition on the Clifford algebra level is found. Moreover, a necessary and sufficient condition for "⭑" to be generated by the Hurwitz multiplication is shown.
