Abstract: We consider the Cauchy integral and Hilbert transform for Lipschitz domains in the Clifford algebra based on ${R^n}$ . The Hilbert transform is shown to be the generating function for the Calderón commutators in ${R^n}$ . We make use of an intrinsic characterization of these commutators to obtain ${L^2}$ estimates. These estimates are used to show the analyticity of the Hilbert transform and of the conjugation of singular integral operators by bi-Lipschitz changes of variable in ${R^n}$ .
