Abstract :
In the present paper we give an overview of recent applications of quaternionic analysis techniques to different mathematical models of electromagnetic theory. In this contribution we explain a numerical method for solving electromagnetic scattering problems in chiral media with an unusual for three-dimensional models precision by the aid of biquaternionic fundamental solutions which to the difference of the usually utilized matrix fundamental solutions for the Maxwell equations enjoy some advantageous properties.
