Abstract

In this paper, we develop a fractional integro‐differential operator calculus for Clifford algebra‐valued functions. To do that, we introduce fractional analogues of the Teodorescu and Cauchy‐Bitsadze operators, and we investigate some of their mapping properties. As a main result, we prove a fractional Borel‐Pompeiu formula based on a fractional Stokes formula. This tool in hand allows us to present a Hodge‐type decomposition for the fractional Dirac operator. Our results exhibit an amazing duality relation between left and right operators and between Caputo and Riemann‐Liouville fractional derivatives. We round off this paper by presenting a direct application to the resolution of boundary value problems related to Laplace operators of fractional order.
