 Clifford algebra bundle

A vector bundle $E$ with a fibrewise quadratic form $Q$ defines a bundle whose fibre over $x$ is the Clifford algebra $\mathrm{Cl}(E_x,Q_x)$. When the polar form is a nondegenerate bilinear form, local orthonormal frames identify its fibres with a fixed Clifford algebra, and orthogonal transition maps induce the algebra transition maps. A Clifford module bundle is a bundle of modules over these algebras, rather than the algebra bundle itself. For a Riemannian manifold, use its cotangent bundle and the metric quadratic form, with the sign convention specified.
