QUATERNIONIC SLICE REGULAR FUNCTIONS AND QUATERNIONIC LAPLACE TRANSFORMS

The functions studied in the paper are the quaternion-valued functions of a quaternionic variable.It is shown that the left slice regular functions and right slice regular functions are related by a particular involution,and that the intrinsic slice regular functions play a central role in the theory of slice regular functions.The relation between left slice regular functions,right slice regular functions and intrinsic slice regular functions is revealed.As an application,the classical Laplace transform is generalized naturally to quaternions in two different ways,which transform a quaternion-valued function of a real variable to a left or right slice regular function.The usual properties of the classical Laplace transforms are generalized to quaternionic Laplace transforms.

On Quaternionic 3 CR-Structure and Pseudo-Riemannian Metric

A CR-structure on a 2n +1-manifold gives a conformal class of Lorentz metrics on the Fefferman S1-bundle. This analogy is carried out to the quarternionic conformal 3-CR structure (a generalization of quaternionic CR- structure) on a 4n + 3 -manifold M. This structure produces a conformal class [g] of a pseudo-Riemannian metric g of type (4n + 3,3) on M × S3. Let (PSp(n +1,1), S4n+3) be the geometric model obtained from the projective boundary of the complete simply connected quaternionic hyperbolic manifold. We shall prove that M is locally modeled on (PSp(n +1,1), S4n+3) if and only if (M × S3 ,[g]) is conformally flat (i.e. the Weyl conformal curvature tensor vanishes).

On Bicomplex Representation Methods and Applications of Matrices over Quaternionic Division Algebra

In this paper, a series of bicomplex representation methods of quaternion division algebra is introduced. We present a new multiplication concept of quaternion matrices, a new determinant concept, a new inverse concept of quaternion matrix and a new similar matrix concept. Under the new concept system, many quaternion algebra problems can be transformed into complex algebra problems to express and study. These concepts can perfect the theory of [J.L. Wu, A new representation theory and some methods on quaternion division algebra, JP Journal of Algebra, 2009, 14(2): 121-140] and unify the complex algebra and quaternion division algebra.

This paper aims to present, in a unified manner, algebraic techniques for linear equations which are valid on both the algebras of quaternions and split quaternions. This paper, introduces a concept of v-quaternion, studies the problem of v-quaternionic linear equations by means of a complex representation and a real representation of v-quaternion matrices, and gives two algebraic methods for solving v-quaternionic linear equations. This paper also gives a unification of algebraic techniques for quaternionic and split quaternionic linear equations in quaternionic and split quaternionic mechanics.

This paper also gives a unification of algebraic techniques for eigenvalues and eigenvectors in quaternionic and split quaternionic mechanics.

Chiral Dirac Equation Derived From Quaternionic Maxwell’s Systems

In the present article we propose a simple equality involving the Dirac operator and the Maxwell operators under chiral approach. This equality establishes a direct connection between solutions of the two systems and moreover, we show that it is valid when the natural relation between the frequency of the electromagnetic wave and the energy of the Dirac particle is fulfilled if the electric field E is parallel to the magnetic field H. Our analysis is based on the quaternionic form of the Dirac equation and on the quaternionic form of the Maxwell equations. In both cases these reformulations are completely equivalent to the traditional form of the Dirac and Maxwell systems. This theory is a new quantum mechanics (QM) interpretation. The below research proves that the QM represents the electrodynamics of the curvilinear closed chiral waves. It is entirely according to the modern interpretation and explains the particularities and the results of the quantum field theory. Also this work may help to clarify the controversial relation between Maxwell and Dirac equations while presenting an original way to derive the Dirac equation from the chiral electrodynamics, leading, perhaps, to novel conception in interactions between matter and electromagnetic fields. This approach may give a reinterpretation of Majorana equation, neutrino mass, violation of Heinsenberg’s measurement-disturbation relationship and mass generation in systems like graphene devices.

In this paper,we prove that in a hyperconvex domainΩin H^(n),if a non-negative Borel measure is dominated by a quaternionic Monge-Amp`ere measure,then it is a quaternionic Monge-Amp`ere measure of a function in the class E(Ω).

Asymptotics for Certain Harmonic Functions and the Martin Compactification on the Quaternionic Heisenberg Group

In this paper, we make the asymptotic estimates of the heat kernel for the quaternionic Heisenberg group in various cases. We also use these results to deduce the asymptotic estimates of certain harmonic functions on the quaternionic Heisenberg group. Moreover a Martin compactification of the quaternionic Heisenberg group is constructed, and we prove that the Martin boundary of this group is homeomorphic to the unit ball in the quaternionic field.

Totally real minimal 2-spheres in quaternionic projective space

Let HPn be the quaternionic projective space with constant quaternionic sectional curvature 4. Then locally there exists a tripe {I, J,K} of complex structures on HPn satisfying IJ = -JI = K, JK = -KJ = I, KI = -IK = J. A surface M HPn is called totally real, if at each point p ∈ M the tangent plane TpM is perpendicular to I(TpM),J(TpM) and K(TpM). It is known that any surface M RPn HPn is totally real, where RPn HPn is the standard embedding of real projective space in HPn induced by the inclusion R in H, and that there are totally real surfaces in HPn which don't come from this way. In this paper we show that any totally real minimal 2-sphere in HPn is isometric to a full minimal 2-sphere in RP2m RPn HPn with 2m ≤ n. As a consequence we show that the Veronese sequences in RP2m (m ≥ 1) are the only totally real minimal 2-spheres with constant curvature in the quaternionic projective space.

Quaternion-Based Adaptive Trajectory Tracking Control of a Rotor-Missile with Unknown Parameters Identification

This paper investigates the adaptive trajectory tracking control problem and the unknown parameter identification problem of a class of rotor-missiles with parametric system uncertainties.First,considering the uncertainty of structural and aerodynamic parameters,the six-degree-of-freedom(6Do F) nonlinear equations describing the position and attitude dynamics of the rotor-missile are established,respectively,in the inertial and body-fixed reference frames.Next,a hierarchical adaptive trajectory tracking controller that can guarantee closed-loop stability is proposed according to the cascade characteristics of the 6Do F dynamics.Then,a memory-augmented update rule of unknown parameters is proposed by integrating all historical data of the regression matrix.As long as the finitely excited condition is satisfied,the precise identification of unknown parameters can be achieved.Finally,the validity of the proposed trajectory tracking controller and the parameter identification method is proved through Lyapunov stability theory and numerical simulations.

Complex Decision Modeling Framework with Fairly Operators and Quaternion Numbers under Intuitionistic Fuzzy Rough Context

The main goal of informal computing is to overcome the limitations of hypersensitivity to defects and uncertainty while maintaining a balance between high accuracy,accessibility,and cost-effectiveness.This paper investigates the potential applications of intuitionistic fuzzy sets(IFS)with rough sets in the context of sparse data.When it comes to capture uncertain information emanating fromboth upper and lower approximations,these intuitionistic fuzzy rough numbers(IFRNs)are superior to intuitionistic fuzzy sets and pythagorean fuzzy sets,respectively.We use rough sets in conjunction with IFSs to develop several fairly aggregation operators and analyze their underlying properties.We present numerous impartial laws that incorporate the idea of proportionate dispersion in order to ensure that the membership and non-membership activities of IFRNs are treated equally within these principles.These operations lead to the development of the intuitionistic fuzzy rough weighted fairly aggregation operator(IFRWFA)and intuitionistic fuzzy rough ordered weighted fairly aggregation operator(IFRFOWA).These operators successfully adjust to membership and non-membership categories with fairness and subtlety.We highlight the unique qualities of these suggested aggregation operators and investigate their use in the multiattribute decision-making field.We use the intuitionistic fuzzy rough environment’s architecture to create a novel strategy in situation involving several decision-makers and non-weighted data.Additionally,we developed a novel technique by combining the IFSs with quaternion numbers.We establish a unique connection between alternatives and qualities by using intuitionistic fuzzy quaternion numbers(IFQNs).With the help of this framework,we can simulate uncertainty in real-world situations and address a number of decision-making problems.Using the examples we have released,we offer a sophisticated and systematically constructed illustrative scenario that is intricately woven with the complexity ofmedical evaluation in order to thoroughly assess the relevance and efficacy of the suggested methodology.

On the Classification of Positive Quaternionic Khler Manifolds with b_4=1

Let M be a positive quaternionic Kahler manifold of dimension 4m. We already showed that if the symmetry rank is greater than or equal to [m/2] ＋ 2 and the fourth Betti number b4 is equal to one, then M is isometric to HPm. The goal of this paper is to report that we can improve the lower bound of the symmetry rank by one for higher even-dimensional positive quaternionic Kahler manifolds. Namely, it is shown in this paper that if the symmetry rank of M with b4（M） = 1 is greater than or equal to m/2 ＋ 1 for m ≥ 10, then M is isometric to HPm. One of the main strategies of this paper is to apply a more delicate argument of Frankel type to positive quaternionic Kahler manifolds with certain symmetry rank.

Detecting Quaternionic Maps Between Hyperkähler Manifolds

For a harmonic map between two hyperkäher manifolds,we prove a Weitzenböck type formula for the defining quantity of quaternionic maps,and apply it to harmonic morphisms.We also provide a sufficient and necessary condition for a smooth map being quaternionic.

Elements of Electromagnetic Matter

Originally, Maxwell attempted to express his electromagnetic theory using four-dimensional mathematics of quaternions. Maxwell’s equations were later re-written in a three-dimensional real vector form, which is how the theory is presented today. Thus, an interesting question remains whether we can derive electromagnetic equations analytically from the basic mathematical principles of quaternion algebra and calculus, resulting in general and analytic matter equations. This question seems highly intriguing. Previously, we developed a mathematical theory of time using a normed division algebra of real quaternions [1]. In this study, we extend the theory of time by presenting a new analytical derivation of electromagnetic matter equations using the calculus of real quaternions, as originally intended by Maxwell. Therefore, we propose a novel mathematical definition of the quaternion path derivative using the properties of quaternion division. We then apply the quaternion derivative to an external electromagnetic potential and assume that the first quaternion derivative represents the quaternion electromagnetic force. Next, we assume that the second derivative, or quaternion Laplacian operator, applied to an external electromagnetic potential leads to the quaternion electromagnetic current density. The new analytical expressions are similar to the original empirical Maxwell equations, except for an additional scalar electric field, which allows for a novel formulation of Ohm’s conductivity law. We demonstrate that the resulting analytical equations can be written equivalently using either electromagnetic potentials or fields. Finally, we summarize the key postulates and equations of the new electromagnetic matter theory, which were based on normed division algebra and the calculus of quaternions. The resulting theory appears to be a useful analytical enhancement of the original Maxwell equations, and therefore, seems highly comprehensive, logical, and compelling.

Sampling formulas for 2D quaternionic signals associated with various quaternion Fourier and linear canonical transforms

The main purpose of this paper is to study different types of sampling formulas of quaternionic functions,which are bandlimited under various quaternion Fourier and linear canonical transforms.We show that the quaternionic bandlimited functions can be reconstructed from their samples as well as the samples of their derivatives and Hilbert transforms.In addition,the relationships among different types of sampling formulas under various transforms are discussed.First,if the quaternionic function is bandlimited to a rectangle that is symmetric about the origin,then the sampling formulas under various quaternion Fourier transforms are identical.If this rectangle is not symmetric about the origin,then the sampling formulas under various quaternion Fourier transforms are different from each other.Second,using the relationship between the two-sided quaternion Fourier transform and the linear canonical transform,we derive sampling formulas under various quaternion linear canonical transforms.Third,truncation errors of these sampling formulas are estimated.Finally,some simulations are provided to show how the sampling formulas can be used in applications.

Standard Dual Quaternion Optimization and Its Applications in Hand-Eye Calibration and SLAM

Several common dual quaternion functions,such as the power function,the magnitude function,the 2-norm function,and the kth largest eigenvalue of a dual quaternion Hermitian matrix,are standard dual quaternion functions,i.e.,the standard parts of their function values depend upon only the standard parts of their dual quaternion variables.Furthermore,the sum,product,minimum,maximum,and composite functions of two standard dual functions,the logarithm and the exponential of standard unit dual quaternion functions,are still standard dual quaternion functions.On the other hand,the dual quaternion optimization problem,where objective and constraint function values are dual numbers but variables are dual quaternions,naturally arises from applications.We show that to solve an equality constrained dual quaternion optimization(EQDQO)problem,we only need to solve two quaternion optimization problems.If the involved dual quaternion functions are all standard,the optimization problem is called a standard dual quaternion optimization problem,and some better results hold.Then,we show that the dual quaternion optimization problems arising from the hand-eye calibration problem and the simultaneous localization and mapping(SLAM)problem are equality constrained standard dual quaternion optimization problems.
