Physical holonomy, Thomas precession, and Clifford algebra
1990
After a general discussion of the physical significance of holonomy group transformations, a relation between the transports of Fermi–Walker and Levi–Civita in special relativity is pointed out. A well‐known example—the Thomas–Wigner angle—is rederived in a completely frame‐independent manner using Clifford algebra.
