This paper is concerned with the boundary value problem for hypercomplex function with values in a Clifford algebra: \[ {\bar \partial}_ nw=f,\quad x\in K_ n^{(n)};\quad X^{(n)}((\partial /\partial n)w)=0,\quad x\in \partial K_ n^{(n)}, \] where \({\bar \partial}_ n\) is the generalized Cauchy-Riemann operator \({\bar \partial}_ n=e_ 1(\partial /\partial x_ 1)+\sum^{n}_{j=2}e_ j(\partial /\partial x_ j)\), \(\{e_ 2,...,e_ n\}\) is the basis of \({\mathbb{R}}^{0,n-1}\), \(e_ 1\) is the identity of the Clifford algebra \({\mathbb{R}}_{0,n-1}\), \(X^{(n)}\) is a certain projective operator of \({\mathbb{R}}_{0,n-1}\) onto its subalgebra, and \(K_ n^{(n)}\) is the unit ball in \({\mathbb{R}}^ n.\)
In order to solve this problem, firstly the author constructs an explicit representation formula for Neumann function for Laplacian over the unit ball in \({\mathbb{R}}^ n\) (n\(\geq 3)\) by means of the fundamental solution for Laplacian and Gegenbauer polynomials. Then making use of this Neumann function the solutions of above problem are obtained if the necessary and sufficient condition for the solvability is fulfilled.
