Quaternionic analysis
In mathematics, quaternionic analysis is the study of functions with quaternions as the domain and/or range. Such functions can be called functions of a quaternion variable just as functions of a real variable or functions of a complex variable are called.
As with complex and real analysis, it is possible to study the concepts of analyticity, holomorphy, harmonicity and conformality in the context of quaternions. It is known that for the complex numbers, these four notions coincide; however, for the quaternions, and also the real numbers, not all of the notions are the same.
==Discussion==
The projections of a quaternion onto its scalar part or onto its vector part, as well as the modulus and versor functions, are examples that are basic to understanding quaternion structure. An important example of a function of a quaternion variable is
:f(q) = u q u^
which rotates the vector part of ''q'' by twice the angle of ''u''.
The quaternion inversion f(q) = q^ is another fundamental function, but it introduces questions ''f''(0) = ? and "Solve ''f''(''q'') = 0." Affine transformations
of quaternions have the form
:f(q) = a q + b, \quad a, b \in \mathbb.
Linear fractional transformations of quaternions can be represented by elements of the matrix ring M2(H) operating on the projective line over H. For instance, the mappings q \mapsto u q v, where and are fixed versors serve to produce the motions of elliptic space.
Quaternion variable theory differs in some respects from complex variable theory as in this instance: The complex conjugate mapping of the complex plane is a central tool but requires the introduction of a non-arithmetic operation. Indeed, conjugation changes the orientation of plane figures, something that arithmetic functions do not change. In contrast, the quaternion conjugation can be expressed arithmetically:
Proposition: The function f(q) = - \tfrac 1 2 (q + iqi + jqj + kqk) is equivalent to quaternion conjugation.
Proof: For the basis elements we have
:f(1) = -\tfrac 1 2 (1-1-1-1) = 1, f(i) = -\tfrac 1 2 (i-i+i+i) = -i, f(j) = -j, f(k) = -k .
Consequently, since ''f'' is a linear function,
: f(q) \ = f(w + xi + yj + zk) \ = w f(1) + x f(i) + y f(j) + z f(k) \ = w - x i - y j - zk \ = q^
*.
The success of complex analysis in providing a rich family of holomorphic functions for scientific work has engaged some workers in efforts to extend the planar theory, based on complex numbers, to a 4-space study with functions of a quaternion variable. These efforts were summarized in 1973 by C.A. Deavours. He recalls a 1935 issue of Commentarii Mathematici Helvetici where an alternative theory of "regular functions" was initiated by R. Fueter through the idea of Morera's theorem: quaternion function F is "left regular at ''q'' " when the integral of F vanishes over any sufficiently small hypersurface containing ''q''. Then the analogue of Liouville's theorem holds: the only quaternion function regular with bounded norm in E4 is a constant. One approach to construct regular functions is to use power series with real coefficients. Deavours also gives analogues for the Poisson integral, the Cauchy integral formula, and the presentation of Maxwell’s equations of electromagnetism with quaternion functions.
Though H appears as a union of complex planes, the following proposition shows that extending complex functions requires special care:
Proposition: Let f(z) = u(x,y) + i v(x,y) be a function of a complex variable, z = x + i y. Suppose also that ''u'' is an even function of ''y'' and that ''v'' is an odd function of ''y''. Then f(q) = u(x,y) + r \ v(x,y) is an extension of    to a quaternion variable q = x + y r, \quad r^2 = -1, \quad r \in \mathbb .
Proof: Let ''r
*'' be the conjugate of ''r'' so that ''q'' = ''x'' − ''y r
*''. The extension to H will be complete when it is shown that ''f(q)'' = ''f(x'' − ''y r
*''). Indeed, by hypothesis
:u(x,y)=u(x,-y), \quad v(x,y) = -v(x,-y) \quad so that one obtains
:f(x-yr^
*) = u(x,-y) + r^
* v(x,-y) = u(x,y) + r \ v(x,y) = f(q).
