This book reflects the main ideas in the field and covers quaternions and multivectors, Clifford valued functions and forms, Clifford operator calculus, boundary value problems, numerical Clifford analysis. Further results and research problems are also included The authors intention is to equip the reader with the understanding necessary to adapt these methods to their own work. It is assumed that the reader is familiar with the basics of complex function theory in one variable, functional analysis and algebra. With an ever increasing literature on quaternionic and Clifford analysis the need for an accessible and applicable book on the subject has never been greater. This volume meets this need and will be invaluable for students and researchers in mathematics, physics and engineering who wish to apply quaternionic and Clifford analysis in their work. |

| Publisher Description: Quaternionische Methoden finden Anwendung bei der Lösung einer breiten Vielfalt physikalischer Probleme, die in 3, 4 oder mehr Dimensionen modelliert werden. Die Autoren füllen mit diesem Buch eine Lücke zwischen rein theoretischer Darstellung und den Wünschen des Anwenders - sie konzentrieren sich auf die Clifford-Algebra und bieten fortgeschrittenen Interessenten eine gut nachvollziehbare Einführung in dieses Gebiet. |
