Algemetric’s sister company is Symetrix Corp, an IP supplier to the semiconductor industry, the inventor of ferroelectric memory among other technologies, and the owner of over 300 patents.
While investigating the quantum phenomena that enable a correlated electron memory device, the founder of Symetrix, Dr. Carlos Araujo, found Geometric Algebra (GA) extremely useful in unraveling the underlying quantum effects. Carlos then decided to investigate what other immediate applications GA could enable. For that, he built a research unit responsible for deep diving into rich and robust mathematical systems and frameworks for solving a wide variety of problems associated with data representation, transmission, computation, and security. As a direct result of this initiative, Algemetric was born to translate innovative ideas into mathematical models and working software. After the initial development of encryption technology, he founded Algemetric LLC in 2016 (originally named X-Logos).
Geometric Algebra is a lightweight, flexible, and yet robust mathematical framework with broad applications in advanced computation. GA is known for its compact and elegant representation of problems in physics, computer science and engineering, all in a unified framework.
However, the vast toolbox of GA has had very few applications to data security. Could this GA toolbox provide novel, secure and efficient solutions for encryption, secure computation, or compression? We now know the answer is “Yes!”
Inspired by the mathematical richness of GA, we continue to investigate and incorporate other mathematical resources such as p-adic and Catalan numbers, algebraic topology/homology, and Hilbert space, as enablers of secure and efficient data handling.
We maintain close ties to academia and we established an entirely independent foundation, the ICACGA Foundation, for organizing the International Conference of Advanced Computational Applications of Geometric Algebra (https://icacga.org).
The name Algemetric is a reference to “algebra” and “geometric” in GA, as well as an expression of our mission of providing algebraically-defined solutions to any well-defined problem associated with data and data owners.
The Algemetric Icon is a compass, a tool fundamental to the early development of classical geometry.
It is there, in our DNA, the firm desire and teamwork to solve problems. Our commitment is to deliver results that are practical and secure, today and tomorrow.
True innovation is found at the intersection of industry problems and the ideas of academia. This is what makes Algemetric unique. We combine the expertise of over 40 years in the industry of semiconductors and nanotechnology, a passion for applied mathematics and engineering, with strong hardware and software engineering skills.
We’ve worked with countless establishments in the computing space to make digital workflows that are more secure and private.
