Zeros of polynomials over Cayley-Dickson algebras. S.V. Ludkovsky. 09.06.2004 Abstract In this paper it is investigated the problem which polynomials over Cayley-Dickson algebras (of quaternions, octonions, etc.) have zeros expressible with the help of roots and which polynomials have decompositions as products of linear terms (z − z0,j ), where z0,j are zeros. 1 Introduction Functions of real variables with values in Clifford algebras were investigated, for example, in [3]. In this article we continue our investigations of functions of variables belonging to noncommutative superalgebras [22] considering here also functions of octonion variables and also of more general Cayley-Dickson algebras A , v ≥ 4, containing the octonion algebra as the proper subal- v gebra. The Cayley-Dickson algebras of larger dimensions are not already alternative and proceedings for them are heavier. Nevertheless, using their power-associativity and distributibity it is possible to investigate their poly- nomials. Dirac had used biquaternions (complexified quaternions) in his investiga- tions of quantum mechanics. The Dirac equations D f − D f = m(f + f ) z 1 z˜ 2 1 2 and D f + D f = m(f − f ) on the space of right superlinearly (z, z˜)- z˜ 1 z 2 1 2 superdifferentiable functions of quaternion variable can be extended on the space of (z, z˜)-superdifferentiable functions f (z, z˜) and f (z, z˜) (see [22, 23]) 1 2 gives evident physical interpretation of a solution (f , f ), v ≥ 2
