On Rank of Multivectors in Geometric Algebras	

Dmitry Shirokov	-- HSE University, Moscow, Russia	

We introduce the notion of rank of multivector in Clifford geometric algebras of arbitrary dimension without using the corresponding matrix representations and using only geometric algebra operations. We use the concepts of characteristic polynomial in geometric algebras and the method of SVD. The results can be used in various applications of geometric algebras in computer science, engineering, and physics.
