Notes
There are different notations for the set of bicomplex numbers, like \(\mathbb {C}_2, \mathbb {T}, \mathbb {B}\mathbb {C}\) etc. We fix it to be \(\mathbb {B}_{\mathbb {C}}\) more indicative towards the pairs of complex numbers.
\(\Omega \) admits compact exhaustion (see [14, Proposition 4.76])
