The Hermitean Hilbert-Dirac Connection

Hermitean Clifford analysis is a recent branch of Clifford analysis, refining the Euclidean case; it focusses on the simultaneous null solutions, called Hermitean monogenic functions, of two complex Dirac operators which are invariant under the action of the unitary group. The specificity of the framework, introduced by means of a complex structure creating a Hermitean space, forces the underlying vector space to be even dimensional. Thus, any Hilbert convolution kernel in R(2n) should originate from the non-tangential boundary limits of a corresponding Cauchy kernel in R(2n+2). In this paper we show that the difficulties posed by this inevitable dimensional jump can be overcome by following a matrix approach. The resulting matrix Hermitean Hilbert transform also gives rise, through composition with the matrix Dirac operator, to a Hermitean Hilbert-Dirac convolution operator "factorizing" the Laplacian and being closely related to Riesz potentials.
