Review text

The authors deal with the definition of monogenic differential forms with values in the Clifford algebra over \(\mathbb{R}^m\) (or in a convenient spinor space). The definition given by the first author [Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 326, 613--632 (1991; Zbl 0736.30034)] is refined to fulfill the following requirements: Invariance with respect to the \(\mathrm{Spin}(m)\) group; the homology of the underlying domain should coincide with that defined by the outer differentiation \(d\) between the spaces of monogenic \(k\)-forms; there should exist a Cauchy theorem. Such a notion is described -- without proofs -- by splitting the space of \(k\)-forms in a suitable way and defining monogenic forms as the kernel of the respective splitting of \(d\). This leads to the desired properties.
