We show that the Morita equivalences Cliff(4)≃H, Cliff(7)≃Cliff(−1), and Cliff(8)≃R arise from quantizing the Hamiltonian reductions R⁰|4//Spin(3), R⁰|⁷//G₂, and R⁰|⁸//Spin(7), respectively. We show that the Morita equivalences Cliff(4)≃H, Cliff(7)≃Cliff(−1), and Cliff(8)≃R arise from quantizing the...
