boost.Geometry operators

I would like to use operators in boost.Geometry instead of multiply_value, add_point, dot_product ... . Do I have to define these myself?

#include <boost/geometry.hpp>
#include <boost/geometry/geometries/point.hpp>
namespace bg = boost::geometry;
using Point = bg::model::point<double, 3, bg::cs::cartesian>;
using namespace bg;

void test()
{
    const double z{2.0};
    const Point a{1.0,2.0,-1.0};

    // this doesn't compile:
    //      const Point b{z*a};
    //      const Point c{a+b};

    // instead I have to do this:
    Point b{a};
    multiply_value(b, z);

    Point c{5.0,1.0,0.0};
    add_point(c, b);
}
