Range conditions for a spherical mean transform and global extendibility of solutions of the Darboux equation (Q628374)

In this interesting and well written paper, the authors describe the range of the spherical Radon transform which evaluates integrals of functions in \(\mathbb R^n\) over spheres centered on a given sphere. Range description for such transform have been studied by several authors recently, in particular several authors have studied the global extendibility of solutions of the Darboux equation by an indirect method. In this paper the authors improve such results, dropping one of the conditions and presenting a direct proof of the mentioned results.
