In mathematics, quaternionic projective space is an extension of the ideas of real projective space and complex projective space, to the case where coordinates lie in the ring of quaternions H. Quaternionic projective space of dimension n is usually denoted by
and is a closed manifold of (real) dimension 4n. It is a homogeneous space for a Lie group action, in more than one way.

Famous quotes containing the word space:
“When my body leaves me
I’m lonesome for it.
but body
goes away to I don’t know where
and it’s lonesome to drift
above the space it
fills when it’s here.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
