Abstract

The theory of the operator G(x)=x2x0+xj=1nxjxjG(x) = |\underline{x}|^2 \frac{\partial }{\partial x_0} + \underline{x} \sum_{j=1}^n x_j \frac{\partial }{\partial x_j} is deeply associated with the slice monogenic function theory and has grown in recent years. In particular, for n=3n=3 the quaternionic version of GG has been recently used to study the quaternionic slice regular function theory. This work extends the study of the GG operator in two senses: a) Clifford's analysis structure. The function theory induced by the operator \begin{align*}\mathcal H_a (x) = {\underline a} ( {x}) \frac{\partial }{\partial x_0} - \sum_{i=1}^n \left( \sum_{j=1}^n a_j ( {x}) \frac{\partial (a^{-1})_i}{\partial y_j}\circ a ( {x}) \right) \frac{\partial}{\partial x_i}, \end{align*} where aa is a function with certain properties with domain in Rn+1\mathbb R^{n+1} is presented extending the already known results of the GG. Also some properties of the material derivative are presented as consequences of function theory induced by Ha\mathcal H_a. b) Structure of quaternionic analysis. In particular, the case n=3n=3 is approached from the point of view of quaternionic analysis.
