Monogenic polynomials of four variables with binomial expansion

In the recent past one of the main concern of research in the field of Hypercomplex Function Theory in Clifford Algebras was the development of a variety of new tools for a deeper understanding about its true elementary roots in the Function Theory of one Complex Variable. Therefore the study of the space of monogenic (Clifford holomorphic) functions by its stratification via homogeneous monogenic polynomials is a useful tool. In this paper we consider the structure of those polynomials of four real variables with binomial expansion. This allows a complete characterization of sequences of 4D generalized monogenic Appell polynomials by three different types of polynomials. A particularly important case is that of monogenic polynomials which are simply isomorphic to the integer powers of one complex variable and therefore also called pseudo-complex powers.

Using GeoGebra to study complex functions

The aim of this workshop to present some of the strategies studied to use GeoGebra in the analysis of complex functions. The proposed tasks focus on complex analysis topics target for students of the 1st year of higher education, which can be easily adapted to pre-university students. In the first part of this workshop we will illustrate how to use the two graphical windows of GeoGebra to represent complex functions of complex variable. The second part will present the use of the dynamic color Geogebra in order to obtain Coloring domains that correspond to the graphic representation of complex functions. Finally, we will use the threedimensional graphics window in GeoGebra to study the component functions of a complex function. During the workshop will be provided scripts orientation of the different tasks proposed to be held on computers with Geogebra version 5.0 or high.

Complex functions with Geogebra

Complex functions, generally feature some interesting peculiarities, seen as extensions real functions, complementing the study of real analysis. However, the visualization of some complex functions properties requires the simultaneous visualization of two-dimensional spaces. The multiple Windows of GeoGebra, combined with its ability of algebraic computation with complex numbers, allow the study of the functions defined from ℂ to ℂ through traditional techniques and by the use of Domain Colouring. Here, we will show how we can use GeoGebra for the study of complex functions, using several representations and creating tools which complement the tools already provided by the software. Our proposals designed for students of the first year of engineering and science courses can and should be used as an educational tool in collaborative learning environments. The main advantage in its use in individual terms is the promotion of the deductive reasoning (conjecture / proof). In performed the literature review few references were found involving this educational topic and by the use of a single software.
