In a recent paper the authors have shown how to give an integral representation of the Fueter mapping theorem using the Cauchy formula for slice monogenic functions. Specifically, given a slice monogenic function $f$ of the form $f=\alpha+\underline{\omega}\beta$ (where $\alpha$, $\beta$ satisfy the Cauchy-Riemann equations) we represent in integral form the axially monogenic function $\bar{f}=A+\underline{\omega}B$ (where $A,B$ satisfy the Vekua's system) given by $\bar{f}(x)=\Delta^{\frac{n-1}{2}}f(x)$ where $\Delta$ is the Laplace operator in dimension $n+1$. In this paper we solve the inverse problem: given an axially monogenic function $\bar{f}$ determine a slice monogenic function $f$ (called Fueter's primitive of $\bar{f}$ such that $\bar{f}=\Delta^{\frac{n-1}{2}}f(x)$. We prove an integral representation theorem for $f$ in terms of $\bar{f}$ which we call the inverse Fueter mapping theorem (in integral form). Such a result is obtained also for regular functions of a quaternionic variable of axial type. The solution $f$ of the equation $\Delta^{\frac{n-1}{2}}f(x)=\bar{f} (x)$ in the Clifford analysis setting, i.e. the inversion of the classical Fueter mapping theorem, is new in the literature and has some consequences that are now under investigation.
Keywords: slice monogenic functions, axially monogenic function, Fueter mapping theorem in integral form, inverse Fueter mapping theorem in integral form., Cauchy-Riemann equations, Vekua's system, Fueter's primitive.
