Twisted-center unit conjecture for Clifford algebras
Let be a commutative ring with unit in which , let be a quadratic module over , and set . Let be the idempotent used to form the Clifford algebra , and write for its group of units in the twisted center, with decomposition into and parts denoted by ; write for the elements of the even component annihilated by . Twisted-center unit conjecture. The intersection
is empty; equivalently, no element satisfies . The conjecture is presented as a proposed relaxation of the conditions in the preceding proposition; its general validity is left open.
