Geometric algebras of dimension n<6$$ n<6 $$ are becoming increasingly popular for the modeling of 3D and 3 + 1D geometry. With this increased popularity comes the need for efficient algorithms for common operations such as normalization, square roots, and exponential and logarithmic maps. The current work presents a signature‐agnostic analysis of these common operations in all geometric algebras of dimension n<6$$ n<6 $$ and gives efficient numerical implementations in the most popular algebras ℝ4,ℝ3,1,ℝ3,0,1$$ {\mathbb{R}}_4,{\mathbb{R}}_{3,1},{\mathbb{R}}_{3,0,1} $$, and ℝ4,1$$ {\mathbb{R}}_{4,1} $$, in the hopes of lowering the threshold for adoption of geometric algebra solutions by code maintainers.
