Fischer decomposition of massless fields for spin 3/2 in dimension 4 (Q2067209)

In the introduction the authors recall important applications of Clifford analysis, its relations with the Dirac equation for fields with values in basic spinor representations, the corresponding polynomial solutions (monogenic polynomials) which give rise to a function theory that is analogue of the power series expansion in classical complex analysis. From this theory the necessity is clear to understand the irreducible decomposition, usually called the monogenic Fischer decomposition, of the space of spinor-valued polynomials under the action of the spin group Spin(\(n\)). It is noted that the equations studied in Clifford analysis are invariant with respect to the action of the spin group. They comment many other important aspects of Clifford analysis. In Section 2 the authors recall the necessary notations for spin modules, invariant operators and commutation relations. Section 3 is called Fischer Decompositions. The authors recall that in a previous paper (authored by three of the authors of the present paper) it was proposed that the so-called generalized Cauchy-Riemann equations are the best analogues of massless field equations in \(\mathbb R^4\). The aim of this section is to decompose the space of their polynomials solutions. They consider the 0, \(1/2\) and 1 cases. Section 4 is the main part of the paper, here the authors describe the yet unknown case of spin \(3/2\).
