In this paper we prove that the projective dimension of n = R 4 / A n is 2 n - 1 , where R is the ring of polynomials in 4 n variables with complex coefficients, and A n is the module generated by the columns of a 4 × 4 n matrix which arises as the Fourier transform of the matrix of differential operators associated with the regularity condition for a function of n quaternionic variables. As a corollary we show that the sheaf of regular functions has flabby dimension 2 n - 1 , and we prove a cohomology vanishing theorem for open sets in the space n of quaternions. We also show that Ext j ( n , R ) = 0 , for j = 1 , , 2 n - 2 and Ext 2 n - 1 ( n , R ) 0 , and we use this result to show the removability of certain singularities of the Cauchy–Fueter system.

As a corollary we show that the sheaf ${\cal R}$ of regular functions has flabby dimension $2n-1$, and we prove a cohomology vanishing theorem for open sets in the space ${\Bbb H}^n$ of quaternions. We also show that ${\rm Ext}^j({\cal M}_n,R)=0$, for $j=1, \dots ,2n-2$ and ${\rm Ext}^{2n-1}({\cal M}_n,R) \ne 0,$ and we use this result to show the removability of certain singularities of the Cauchy–Fueter system.
