Abstract

top
The theory of slice-regular functions of a quaternion variable is applied to the study of orthogonal complex structures on domains Ω of 4 . When Ω is a symmetric slice domain, the twistor transform of such a function is a holomorphic curve in the Klein quadric. The case in which Ω is the complement of a parabola is studied in detail and described by a rational quartic surface in the twistor space P 3 .
