Grassmann Variables Representation?

Question

It might be a silly question, but I was never mathematically introduced to the topic. Is there a representation for Grassmann Variables using real field. For example, gamma matrices have a representation, is it not possible for Grassmann Variables? The reason for a representation is, then probably it will be easier to derive some of the properties.

Answer 1

I think that this Wikipedia article will tells this all.

The only problem is that for $n$ (I mean $\theta_1,\theta_2,...\theta_n$) Grassmann numbers you will need to use $2^n\times 2^n$ matrices.

This seems related to the Jordan-Wigner transformation that maps a fermion system to a boson system.
