Gauge Field Theories on Clifford Algebras

We present a straightforward model of the U(1) gauge equations of Dirac and Maxwell, as well as the U(n) Yang–Mills equations where all fields and gauge transformations take values in a Clifford algebra. When expressed in terms of the Clifford components of the fields, the equations display various gauge symmetries which we intestigate for all Clifford algebras. In particular, for the Pauli algebra, the Dirace CA equations possess the SU(2) × U(1)-symmetry.
