[ | \lambda x | = |\lambda| \mathbbC | x | \quad \textor more generally \quad | \lambda x | = |\lambda| \mathbbBC | x | ? ] But ( |\lambda|_\mathbbBC = \sqrtz_1 ) works, giving a real norm. However, to preserve the bicomplex structure, one uses :

with componentwise addition and multiplication. Equivalently, introduce an independent imaginary unit ( \mathbfj ) (where ( \mathbfj^2 = -1 ), commuting with ( i )), and write: Basics of Functional Analysis with Bicomplex Sc...

[ \mathbbBC = z_1 + z_2 \mathbfj \mid z_1, z_2 \in \mathbbC ] [ | \lambda x | = |\lambda| \mathbbC

Every bicomplex number has a unique :

This decomposition is the of the theory: every bicomplex functional analytic result follows from applying complex functional analysis to each idempotent component. 4. Bicomplex Linear Operators Let ( X, Y ) be bicomplex Banach spaces. A map ( T: X \to Y ) is bicomplex linear if: [ T(\lambda x + \mu y) = \lambda T(x) + \mu T(y), \quad \forall \lambda, \mu \in \mathbbBC, \ x,y \in X. ] A map ( T: X \to Y )
