An extension of Widder's theorem (Q1825375)

Let D be an open set in \({\mathbb{R}}^ 2\) and \(D_ c={\mathbb{R}}\times (0,C)\) a strip or a half-plane in \({\mathbb{R}}^ 2\). The boundary behavior of solutions of the one-dimensional heat equation \[ (1)\quad u_ t- u_{xx}=0,\quad (x,t)\in D_ c \] is considered. The aim of this paper is to show an analogue of a known result for solutions of (1) that each harmonic function h(x,t) defined on \(D_{\infty}\), with \(h(x,t)\leq k(t)\) \((t>0)\), can be represented in the form \[ h(x,t)=\frac{1}{\pi}\int^{\infty}_{-\infty}(t/((x-y)^ 2+t^ 2))d(\lim_{\tau \to 0+}\int^{y}_{0}h(z,\tau)dz+Ct. \]
