De Sitter Quasigroups

The Cayley–Klein parameters for the de Sitter groups SO(4, 1) and SO(3, 2) are introduced, and in an extension of the earlier investigation of quasigroups connected with Clifford groups, quasigroups connected with the SO(4, 1) and SO(3, 2) groups are determined. It is shown that these quasigroups have eight-dimensional, double-valued irreducible cracovian representations. The covariance of a five-dimensional form of the Dirac equation with respect to the quasi-rotations forming quasigroups connected with the groups SO(4, 1) and SO(3, 2) is demonstrated. An analogy is drawn between Weyl's hidden symmetry group and a quasigroup.
