摘要
We discuss the (right) eigenvalue equation for H, C and R linear quaternionic operators. The possibility to introduce an isomorphism between these operators and real/complex matrices allows us to translate the quaternionic problem into an equivalent real or complex counterpart. Interesting applications are found in solving differential equations within quaternionic formulations of quantum mechanics. (C) 2002 American Institute of Physics.
