Abstract

Dirichlet problems for Poisson equation and a second order linear equation are studied in the unit ball by using an integral representation formula with respect to the Laplacian in the complex Clifford algebra \(\mathbb {C}_m\) for m ≥ 3. Iterating the Green type kernel function, representation of the solution of the bi-Poisson equation with homogeneous Dirichlet condition is presented.

Dedicated to Prof. H.G.W. Begehr on the occasion of his 80th birthday
