Abstract

We introduce the spaces Aα,βp(Ω)A^p_{\alpha, \beta}(\Omega) of LpL^p-solutions to the Vekua equation (generalized monogenic functions) Dw=αw+βwD w=\alpha\overline{w}+\beta w in a bounded domain in Rn\mathbb{R}^n, where D=i=1neiiD=\sum_{i=1}^n e_i \partial_i is the Moisil-Teodorescu operator, α\alpha and β\beta are bounded functions on Ω\Omega. The main result of this work consists of a Hodge decomposition of the L2L^2 solutions of the Vekua equation, from this orthogonal decomposition arises an operator associated with the Vekua operator, which in turn factorizes certain Schr\"odinger operators. Moreover, we provide an explicit expression of the ortho-projection over Aα,βp(Ω)A^p_{\alpha, \beta}(\Omega) in terms of the well-known ortho-projection of L2L^2 monogenic functions and an isomorphism operator. Finally, we prove the existence of component-wise reproductive Vekua kernels and the interrelationship with the Vekua projection in Bergman's sense.
