Abstract

We consider several questions related to the removability of singularities for regular functions of quaternionic variables. In particular we use an old idea of Severi to prove that a function f : ℍ × ℝ → ℍ regular in the first variable and real analytic in the second variable, cannot have compact singularities; we show how this result must be modified in the case of functions defined on biquaternions. Finally, we construct a class of regular functions on ℍ2 for which we can remove singularities such as K × ℝ3 with K compact in ℝ5.
