Real and Complex Clifford Analysis - (Advances in Complex Analysis and Its Applications) by Sha Huang & Yu Ying Qiao & Guo Chun Wen (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

Clifford analysis, a branch of mathematics that has been developed since about 1970, has important theoretical value and several applications. In this book, the authors introduce many properties of regular functions and generalized regular functions in real Clifford analysis, as well as harmonic functions in complex Clifford analysis. It covers important developments in handling the incommutativity of multiplication in Clifford algebra, the definitions and computations of high-order singular integrals, boundary value problems, and so on. In addition, the book considers harmonic analysis and boundary value problems in four kinds of characteristic fields proposed by Luogeng Hua for complex analysis of several variables. The great majority of the contents originate in the authors' investigations, and this new monograph will be interesting for researchers studying the theory of functions.

Review Quotes

From the reviews:

"It deals with boundary value problems and singular integrals using Clifford analytic methods. One of its merits is the accessibility in English of several results published up to now only in Chinese. ... The references include articles and books by 90 authors. ... this is an interesting book ... it may be recommended to the specialist." (Klaus Habetha, Zentrablatt MATH, Vol. 1096 (22), 2006)
