In this paper, we propose the generalized description of electromagnetism and linear gravity based on the combined dual numbers and complex quaternion algebra. In this approach, the electromagnetic and gravitational fields can be considered as the components of one combined dual-complex quaternionic field. It is shown that all relations between potentials, field strengths and sources can be formulated in the form of compact quaternionic differential equations. The alternative reformulation of equations of gravitoelectromagnetism based on formalism of [Formula: see text] matrices is also discussed. The results reveal the similarity and isomorphism of distinctive algebraic structures.
