preprintOpen accessSenior authorOne of the key problems in dealing with color in rendering, shading, compositing, or image manipulation is that we do not have algebraic structures that support operations over colors. In this paper, we present an all-encompassing framework that can support a set of algebraic structures with associativity, commutativity, and inverse properties. To provide these three properties, we build our algebraic structures on an extension of projective space by allowing for negative and complex numbers. Th…
