Fischer Decomposition For Osp(4|2)-Monogenics In Quaternionic Clifford Analysis

Spaces of spinor-valued homogeneous polynomials, and in particular spaces of spinor-valued spherical harmonics, are decomposed in terms of irreducible representations of the symplectic group Sp(p). These Fischer decompositions involve spaces of homogeneous, so-called osp(4|2)-monogenic polynomials, the Lie super algebra osp(4|2) being the Howe dual partner to the symplectic group Sp(p). In order to obtain Sp(p)-irreducibility, this new concept of osp(4|2)-monogenicity has to be introduced as a refinement of quaternionic monogenicity; it is defined by means of the four quaternionic Dirac operators, a scalar Euler operator E underlying the notion of symplectic harmonicity and a multiplicative Clifford algebra operator P underlying the decomposition of spinor space into symplectic cells. These operators E and P, and their Hermitian conjugates, arise naturally when constructing the Howe dual pair osp(4|2)xSp(p), the action of which will make the Fischer decomposition multiplicity free.
