Functoriality of Lipschitz groups #
A ring homomorphism of Clifford algebras that sends vector generators to vector generators restricts to a homomorphism of Lipschitz groups. In particular, a quadratic isometry induces such a homomorphism, and its action on vectors is natural with respect to that isometry.
