A Schwartz-type Space for the $\left(k,\frac{2}{n}\right)-$Generalized Fourier Transform

The Schwartz space $\mathcal{S}(\mathbb{R}^N)$ is not invariant under the $(k,a)$-generalized Fourier transform $\mathcal{F}_{k,a}$ unless $a=2$, and in general no such adapted space is known. For $N=1$ and $\displaystyle a=\frac{2}{n}$, $n\in\mathbb{N}$, we construct a tailored Schwartz-type space $\mathcal{S}_{k,n}(\mathbb{R})$ defined via seminorms built from natural second-order operators associated with the one-dimensional Dunkl Laplacian $\Delta_k$. We prove that $\mathcal{S}_{k,n}(\mathbb{R})$ recovers the two basic features of the classical Schwartz space: invariance under the corresponding Fourier-type operator and density in the relevant weighted $L^p-$spaces. To establish these results, we introduce the space $\mathcal{D}_{k,n}(\mathbb{R})$ of compactly supported smooth functions, which embeds continuously into $\mathcal{S}_{k,n}(\mathbb{R})$ and is dense in the weighted spaces $L^p(d\mu_{k,n})$, $1\le p<\infty$. These results provide the first Schwartz-type space for $\mathcal{F}_{k,a}$ that simultaneously ensures invariance and $L^p$-density, and admits an $\mathfrak{sl}(2,\mathbb{R})$-based description of the underlying operator structure.

Paley-Wiener Type Theorems associated to Dirac Operators of Riesz-Feller type

This paper explores Paley-Wiener type theorems within the framework of hypercomplex variables. The investigation focuses on a space-fractional version of the Dirac operator $\mathbf{D}_\theta^{\alpha}$ of order $\alpha$ and skewness $\theta$. The pseudo-differential reformulation of $\mathbf{D}_\theta^{\alpha}$ in terms of the Riesz derivative $(-\Delta)^{\frac{\alpha}{2}}$ and the so-called {\textit Riesz-Hilbert transform} $H$, allows for the description of generalized Hardy spaces on the upper and lower half-spaces of $\mathbf{R}^{n+1}$, $\mathbf{R}^{n+1}_+$ resp. $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}_-$, using L\'evy-Feller type semigroups generated by $-(-\Delta)^{\frac{\alpha}{2}}$, and the boundary values $\mathbf{f}_\pm=\frac{1}{2}\left(\mathbf{f}\pm H\mathbf{f}\right)$. Subsequently, we employ a proof strategy rooted in {\textit real Paley-Wiener methods} to demonstrate that the growth behavior of the sequences of functions $\left(\left(\mathbf{D}_\theta^{\alpha}\right)^k\mathbf{f}_{\pm}\right)_{k\in \mathbb{N}_0}$ effectively captures the relationship between the support of the Fourier transform $\widehat{\mathbf{f}}$ of the $L^p-$function $\mathbf{f}$, in the case where $\mathrm{supp}\widehat{\mathbf{f}}\subseteq \overline{B(0,R)}$, and the solutions of Cauchy problems equipped with the space-time operator $\partial_{x_0} + \mathbf{D}_\theta^{\alpha}$, which are of exponential type $R^\alpha$. Within the developed framework, introducing a hypercomplex analog for the Bernstein spaces $B_R^p$ arises naturally, allowing for the meaningful extension of the results by Kou and Qian as well as Franklin, Hogan, and Larkin. Specifically, leveraging the established Stein-Kolmogorov inequalities for hypercomplex variables enables us to accurately determine the maximum radius $R$ for which $\operatorname{supp}\widehat{\mathbf{f}} \subseteq \overline{B(0, R)}$ holds.

Structurally damped $σ-$evolution equations with power-law memory

We consider an integro-differential counterpart of the $σ-$evolution equation of the type \[ \partial_t^2 u(t,x)+μ(-Δ)^{\fracσ{2}} \partial_t u(t,x)+(-Δ)^σu(t,x)=f(t,x), \] with $σ>0$ and $μ>0$, that encodes memory of \textit{power-law} type. To do so, we replace the time derivatives $\partial_t$ and $\partial_t^2$ by the so-called Caputo-Djrbashian derivatives $\partial_t^γ$ of order $γ=α$ and $γ=2α$, respectively, and the inhomogeneous term $f(t,x)$ by the Riemann-Liouville integral $I^{β-2α}_{0^+}f(t,x)$, whereby $0<α\leq 1$ and $2α\leq β<2α+1$. For the solution representation of the underlying Cauchy problems on the space-time $[0,T]\times \mathbb{R}^n$ we then consider a wide class of pseudo-differential operators $\displaystyle (-Δ)^{\fracη{2}}E_{α,β}\left(~-λ(-Δ)^{\fracσ{2}} t^α~\right)$, endowed by the fractional Laplacian $-(-Δ)^{\fracσ{2}}$ and the two-parameter Mittag-Leffler functions $E_{α,β}$. On our approach we are also able to provide dispersive and Strichartz estimates for the solutions with the aid of decay properties of $E_{α,β}(-z)$ ($z\in \mathbb{C}$) and the boundedness properties of the Hankel transform.

On fractional semidiscrete Dirac operators of Lévy-Leblond type

In this paper we introduce a wide class of space-fractional and time-fractional semidiscrete Dirac operators of Lévy-Leblond type on the semidiscrete space-time lattice $h\mathbb{Z}^n\times[0,\infty)$ ($h>0$), resembling to fractional semidiscrete counterparts of the so-called parabolic Dirac operators. The methods adopted here are fairly operational, relying mostly on the algebraic manipulations involving Clifford algebras, discrete Fourier analysis techniques as well as standard properties of the analytic fractional semidiscrete semigroup $\left\{\exp(-te^{iθ}(-Δ_h)^α)\right\}_{t\geq 0}$, carrying the parameter constraints $0<α\leq 1$ and $|θ|\leq \frac{απ}{2}$. The results obtained involve the study of Cauchy problems on $h\mathbb{Z}^n\times[0,\infty)$.

On Fundamental Solutions of Higher-Order Space-Fractional Dirac equations

Starting from the pseudo-differential decomposition $\mathbf{D}=(-Δ)^{\frac{1}{2}}\mathcal{H}$ of the Dirac operator $\displaystyle \mathbf{D}=\sum_{j=1}^n\mathbf{e}_j\partial_{x_j}$ in terms of the fractional operator $(-Δ)^{\frac{1}{2}}$ of order $1$ and of the Riesz-Hilbert type operator $\mathcal{H}$ we will investigate the fundamental solutions of the space-fractional Dirac equation of Lévy-Feller type $$\partial_tΦ_α(\mathbf{x},t;θ)=-(-Δ)^{\fracα{2}}\exp\left( \frac{iπθ}{2} \mathcal{H}\right)Φ_α(\mathbb{x},t;θ) $$ involving the fractional Laplacian $-(-Δ)^{\fracα{2}}$ of order $α$, with $2m\leq α<2m+2$ ($m\in \mathbb{N}$), and the exponentiation operator $\exp\left( \frac{iπθ}{2} \mathcal{H}\right)$ as the hypercomplex counterpart of the fractional Riesz-Hilbert transform carrying the \textit{skewness parameter} $θ$, with values in the range $|θ|\leq \min\{α-2m,2m+2-α\}$. Such model problem permits us to obtain hypercomplex counterparts for the fundamental solutions of higher-order heat-type equations $\partial_t F_M(x,t)=κ_M(\partial_x)^M F_M(x,t)$ $(M=2,3,\ldots)$ in case where the even powers resp. odd powers $\mathbf{D}^{2m}=(-Δ)^{m}$ ($M=α=2m$) resp. $\mathbf{D}^{2m+1}=(-Δ)^{m+\frac{1}{2}}\mathcal{H}$ ($M=α=2m+1$) of $\mathbf{D}$ are being considered.

A note on the discrete Cauchy-Kovalevskaya extension

In this paper we exploit the umbral calculus framework to reformulate the so-called discrete Cauchy-Kovalevskaya extension in the scope of hypercomplex variables. The key idea is to consider not only formal power series representation for the underlying solution, but also integral representations for the Chebyshev polynomials of first and second kind by means of its Cauchy principal values. It turns out that the resulting integral representation associated to our toy problem is a space-time Fourier type inversion formula. Moreover, with the aid of some Laplace transform identities involving the generalized Mittag-Leffler function we are able to establish a link with a Cauchy problem of differential-difference type.

Relativistic Wave Equations on the lattice: an operational perspective

This paper presents an operational framework for the computation of the discretized solutions for relativistic equations of Klein-Gordon and Dirac type. The proposed method relies on the construction of an evolution-type operador from the knowledge of the \textit{Exponential Generating Function} (EGF), carrying a degree lowering operator $L_t=L(\partial_t)$. We also use certain operational properties of the discrete Fourier transform over the $n-$dimensional \textit{Brioullin zone} $Q_h=\left(-\fracπ{h},\fracπ{h}\right]^n$ -- a toroidal Fourier transform in disguise -- to describe the discrete counterparts of the continuum wave propagators, $\cosh(t\sqrt{Δ-m^2})$ and $\dfrac{\sinh(t\sqrt{Δ-m^2})}{\sqrt{Δ-m^2}}$ respectively, as discrete convolution operators. In this way, a huge class of discretized time-evolution problems of differential-difference and difference-difference type may be studied in the spirit of hypercomplex variables.

A conformal group approach to the Dirac-Kähler system on the lattice

Starting from the representation of the $(n-1)+n-$dimensional Lorentz pseudo-sphere on the projective space $\mathbb{P}\mathbb{R}^{n,n}$, we propose a method to derive a class of solutions underlying to a Dirac-Kähler type equation on the lattice. We make use of the Cayley transform $φ({\bf w})=\dfrac{1+{\bf w}}{1-{\bf w}}$ to show that the resulting group representation arise from the same mathematical framework as the conformal group representation in terms of the {\it general linear group} $GL\left(2,Γ(n-1,n-1)\cup\{ 0\}\right)$. That allows us to describe such class of solutions as a commutative $n-$ary product, involving the quasi-monomials $φ\left({\bf z}_j\right)^{-\frac{x_j}{h}}$ ($x_j \in h\mathbb{Z}$) with membership in the paravector space $\mathbb{R}\oplus \mathbb{R}{\bf e}_j{\bf e}_{n+j}$.

Hypercomplex Fock States for Discrete Electromagnetic Schrödinger Operators: A Bayesian Probability Perspective

We present and study a new class of Fock states underlying to discrete electromagnetic Schrödinger operators from a multivector calculus perspective. This naturally lead to hypercomplex versions of Poisson-Charlier polynomials, Meixner polynomials, among other ones. The foundations of this work are based on the exploitation of the quantum probability formulation 'à la Dirac' to the setting of Bayesian probabilities, on which the Fock states arise as discrete quasi-probability distributions carrying a set of independent and identically distributed (i.i.d) random variables. By employing Mellin-Barnes integrals in the complex plane we obtain counterparts for the well-known multidimensional Poisson and hypergeometric distributions, as well as quasi-probability distributions that may take negative or complex values on the lattice $h\mathbb{Z}^n$.

On a correspondence principle between discrete differential forms, graph structure and multi-vector calculus on symmetric lattices

Based on \cite{DH94}, we introduce a bijective correspondence between first order differential calculi and the graph structure of the symmetric lattice that allows one to encode completely the interconnection structure of the graph in the exterior derivative. As a result, we obtain the Grassmannian character of the lattice as well as the mutual commutativity between basic vector-fields on the tangent space. This in turn gives several similarities between the Clifford setting and the algebra of endomorphisms endowed by the graph structure, such as the hermitian structure of the lattice as well as the Clifford-like algebra of operators acting on the lattice. This naturally leads to a discrete version of Clifford Analysis.

Solutions for the Klein-Gordon and Dirac equations on the lattice based on Chebyshev polynomials

The main goal of this paper is to adopt a multivector calculus scheme to study finite difference discretizations of Klein-Gordon and Dirac equations for which Chebyshev polynomials of the first kind may be used to represent a set of solutions. The development of a well-adapted discrete Clifford calculus framework based on spinor fields allows us to represent, using solely projection based arguments, the solutions for the discretized Dirac equations from the knowledge of the solutions of the discretized Klein-Gordon equation. Implications of those findings on the interpretation of the lattice fermion doubling problem is briefly discussed.

Classes of hypercomplex polynomials of discrete variable based on the quasi-monomiality principle

With the aim of derive a quasi-monomiality formulation in the context of discrete hypercomplex variables, one will amalgamate through a Clifford-algebraic structure of signature $(0,n)$ the umbral calculus framework with Lie-algebraic symmetries. The exponential generating function ({\bf EGF}) carrying the {\it continuum} Dirac operator $D=\sum_{j=1}^n\e_j\partial_{x_j}$ together with the Lie-algebraic representation of raising and lowering operators acting on the lattice $h\BZ^n$ is used to derive the corresponding hypercomplex polynomials of discrete variable as Appell sets with membership on the space Clifford-vector-valued polynomials. Some particular examples concerning this construction such as the hypercomplex versions of falling factorials and the Poisson-Charlier polynomials are introduced. Certain applications from the view of interpolation theory and integral transforms are also discussed.

Special Functions of Hypercomplex Variable on the Lattice Based on SU(1,1)

Based on the representation of a set of canonical operators on the lattice $h\mathbb{Z}^n$, which are Clifford-vector-valued, we will introduce new families of special functions of hypercomplex variable possessing $\mathfrak{su}(1,1)$ symmetries. The Fourier decomposition of the space of Clifford-vector-valued polynomials with respect to the ${\rm SO}(n)\times \mathfrak{su}(1,1)$-module gives rise to the construction of new families of polynomial sequences as eigenfunctions of a coupled system involving forward/backward discretizations $E_h^{\pm}$ of the Euler operator $E=\sum\limits_{j=1}^nx_j \partial_{x_j}$. Moreover, the interpretation of the one-parameter representation $\mathbb{E}_h(t)=\exp(tE_h^--tE_h^+)$ of the Lie group ${\rm SU}(1,1)$ as a semigroup $\left(\mathbb{E}_h(t)\right)_{t\geq 0}$ will allows us to describe the polynomial solutions of an homogeneous Cauchy problem on $[0,\infty)\times h{\mathbb Z}^n$ involving the differencial-difference operator $\partial_t+E_h^+-E_h^-$.

Localization and Toeplitz Operators on Polyanalytic Fock Spaces

The well know conjecture of {\it Coburn} [{\it L.A. Coburn, {On the Berezin-Toeplitz calculus}, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 129 (2001) 3331-3338.}] proved by {\it Lo} [{\it M-L. Lo, {The Bargmann Transform and Windowed Fourier Transform}, Integr. equ. oper. theory, 27 (2007), 397-412.}] and {\it Englis} [{\it M. Engli$\check{s}$, Toeplitz Operators and Localization Operators, Trans. Am. Math Society 361 (2009) 1039-1052.}] states that any {\it Gabor-Daubechies} operator with window $ψ$ and symbol ${\bf a}(x,ω)$ quantized on the phase space by a {\it Berezin-Toeplitz} operator with window $Ψ$ and symbol $σ(z,\bar{z})$ coincides with a {\it Toeplitz} operator with symbol $Dσ(z,\bar{z})$ for some polynomial differential operator $D$. Using the Berezin quantization approach, we will extend the proof for polyanalytic Fock spaces. While the generation is almost mimetic for two-windowed localization operators, the Gabor analysis framework for vector-valued windows will provide a meaningful generalization of this conjecture for {\it true polyanalytic} Fock spaces and moreover for polyanalytic Fock spaces. Further extensions of this conjecture to certain classes of Gel'fand-Shilov spaces will also be considered {\it a-posteriori}.

(Discrete) Almansi Type Decompositions: An umbral calculus framework based on $\mathfrak{osp}(1|2)$ symmetries

We introduce the umbral calculus formalism for hypercomplex variables starting from the fact that the algebra of multivariate polynomials $\BR[\underline{x}]$ shall be described in terms of the generators of the Weyl-Heisenberg algebra. The extension of $\BR[\underline{x}]$ to the algebra of Clifford-valued polynomials $\mathcal{P}$ gives rise to an algebra of Clifford-valued operators whose canonical generators are isomorphic to the orthosymplectic Lie algebra $\mathfrak{osp}(1|2)$. This extension provides an effective framework in continuity and discreteness that allow us to establish an alternative formulation of Almansi decomposition in Clifford analysis (c.f. \cite{Ryan90,MR02,MAGU}) that corresponds to a meaningful generalization of Fischer decomposition for the subspaces $\ker (D')^k$. We will discuss afterwards how the symmetries of $\mathfrak{sl}_2(\BR)$ (even part of $\mathfrak{osp}(1|2)$) are ubiquitous on the recent approach of \textsc{Render} (c.f. \cite{Render08}), showing that they can be interpreted in terms of the method of separation of variables for the Hamiltonian operator in quantum mechanics.

Fock Spaces, Landau Operators and the Regular Solutions of time-harmonic Maxwell equations

We investigate the representations of the solutions to Maxwell's equations based on the combination of hypercomplex function-theoretical methods with quantum mechanical methods. Our approach provides us with a characterization for the solutions to the time-harmonic Maxwell system in terms of series expansions involving spherical harmonics resp. spherical monogenics. Also, a thorough investigation for the series representation of the solutions in terms of eigenfunctions of Landau operators that encode $n-$dimensional spinless electrons is given. This new insight should lead to important investigations in the study of regularity and hypo-ellipticity of the solutions to Schrödinger equations with natural applications in relativistic quantum mechanics concerning massive spinor fields.

Almansi Theorems in Umbral Clifford Analysis and the Quantum Harmonic Oscillator

We introduce the Umbral calculus into Clifford analysis starting from the abstract of the Heisenberg commutation relation $[\frac{d}{dx}, x] = {\bf id}$. The Umbral Clifford analysis provides an effective framework in continuity and discreteness. In this paper we consider functions defined in a star-like domain $Ω\subset \BR^n$ with values in the Umbral Clifford algebra $C\ell_{0,n}'$ which are Umbral polymonogenic with respect to the (left) Umbral Dirac operator $D'$, i.e. they belong to the kernel of $(D')^k$. We prove that any polymonogenic function $f$ has a decomposition of the form $$f=f_1+ x'f_2 + ... + (x')^{k-1}f_k,$$ where $x'=x'_1e_1 + ... + x'_ne_n$ and $f_j, j=1,..., k,$ are Umbral monogenic functions. As examples, this result recoveries the continuous version of the classical Almansi theorem for derivatives and establishes the discrete version of Almansi theorem for difference operator. The approach also provides a similar result in quantum field about Almansi decomposition related to Hamilton operators. Some concrete examples will presented for the discrete analog version of Almansi Decomposition and for the quantum harmonic oscillator.
