The slice Dirac operator over octonions is a slice counterpart of the Dirac operator over quaternions. It involves a new theory of stem functions, which is the extension from the commutative $ O(1) $ case to the non-commutative $ O(3) $ case. For functions in the kernel of the slice Dirac operator over octonions, we establish the representation formula, the Cauchy integral formula (and, more in general, the Cauchy-Pompeiu formula), and the Taylor as well as the Laurent series expansion formulas.
Octonionic analysis is becoming eminent due to the role of octonions in the theory of G2 manifold. In this article, a new slice theory is introduced as a generalization of the holomorphic theory of several complex variables to the noncommutative or nonassociative realm. The Bochner-Martinelli formula is established for slice functions of several octonionic variables as well as several quaternionic variables. In this setting, we find the Hartogs phenomena for slice regular functions
The purpose of this paper is twofold. One is to enrich from a geometrical point of view the theory of octonionic slice regular functions. We first prove a boundary Schwarz lemma for slice regular self-mappings of the open unit ball of the octonionic space. As applications, we obtain two Landau-Toeplitz type theorems for slice regular functions with respect to regular diameter and slice diameter respectively, together with a Cauchy type estimate. Along with these results, we introduce some new and useful ideas, which also allow to prove the minimum principle and one version of the open mapping …
This work looks at the theory of octonionic slice regular functions through the lens of differential topology. It proves a full-fledged version of the Open Mapping Theorem for octonionic slice regular functions. Moreover, it opens the path for a possible use of slice regular functions in the study of almost-complex structures in eight dimensions.
Slice Fueter-regular functions, originally called slice Dirac-regular functions, are generalized holomorphic functions defined over the octonion algebra $\mathbb{O}$, recently introduced by M. Jin, G. Ren and I. Sabadini. A function $f:Ω_D\subset\mathbb{O}\to\mathbb{O}$ is called (quaternionic) slice Fueter-regular if, given any quaternionic subalgebra $\mathbb{H}_\mathbb{I}$ of $\mathbb{O}$ generated by a pair $\mathbb{I}=(I,J)$ of orthogonal imaginary units $I$ and $J$ ($\mathbb{H}_\mathbb{I}$ is a `quaternionic slice' of $\mathbb{O}$), the restriction of $f$ to $Ω_D\cap\mathbb{H}_\mathbb{I}…
In this paper we develop a theory of slice regular functions on a real alternative algebra $A$. Our approach is based on a well--known Fueter's construction. Two recent function theories can be included in our general theory: the one of slice regular functions of a quaternionic or octonionic variable and the theory of slice monogenic functions of a Clifford variable. Our approach permits to extend the range of these function theories and to obtain new results. In particular, we get a strong form of the fundamental theorem of algebra for an ample class of polynomials with coefficients in $A$ an…
In recent years, the study of slice monogenic functions has attracted more and more attention in the literature. In this paper, an extension of the well-known Dirac operator is defined which allows to establish the Lie superalgebra structure behind the theory of slice monogenic functions. Subsequently, an inner product is defined corresponding to this slice Dirac operator and its polynomial null-solutions are determined. Finally, analogues of the Hermite polynomials and Hermite functions are constructed in this context and their properties are studied.
We prove some formulas relating Cauchy-Riemann operators defined on hypercomplex subspaces of an alternative *-algebra to a differential operator associated with the concept of slice-regularity and to the spherical Dirac operator. These results in particular allow to introduce a definition of locally slice-regular function and open the path for local slice analysis. Since Cauchy-Riemann operators factor the corresponding Laplacian operators, the proven formulas let us also obtain several results about the harmonicity and polyharmonicity properties of slice-regular functions.
We present some new relations between the Cauchy-Riemann operator on the real Clifford algebra $\mathbb R_n$ of signature $(0,n)$ and slice-regular functions on $\mathbb R_n$. The class of slice-regular functions, which comprises all polynomials with coefficients on one side, is the base of a recent function theory in several hypercomplex settings, including quaternions and Clifford algebras. In this paper we present formulas, relating the Cauchy-Riemann operator, the spherical Dirac operator, the differential operator characterizing slice regularity, and the {spherical derivative} of a slice …
