Generalized partial-slice monogenic functions: the octonionic case

In a recent paper [Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 378 (2025), 851-883], the concept of generalized partial-slice monogenic (or regular) function was introduced over Clifford algebras. The present paper shall extend the study of generalized partial-slice monogenic functions from the associative case of Clifford algebras to non-associative alternative algebras, such as octonions. The new class of functions encompasses the regular functions [Rend. Sem. Mat. Univ. Padova 50 (1973), 251-267] and slice regular functions [Rocky Mountain J. Math. 40 (2010), no. 1, 225-241] over octonions, indeed both appear in the theory as special cases. In the non-associative setting of octonions, we shall develop some fundamental properties such as identity theorem, Representation Formula, Cauchy (and Cauchy-Pompeiu) integral formula, maximum modulus principle, Fueter polynomials, Taylor series expansion. As a complement, the paper also introduces and discusses the notion of generalized partial-slice (and regular) functions. Although the study is limited to the case of octonions, it is clear from the statements and the arguments in the proofs that the results hold more in general in real alternative algebras equipped with a notion of conjugation.
