In physics , the algebra of physical space ( APS ) is the use of the Clifford or geometric algebra Cl 3,0 ( R ) of the three-dimensional Euclidean space as a model for (3+1)-dimensional spacetime , representing a point in spacetime via a paravector (3-dimensional vector plus a 1-dimensional scalar).
