Coexistence of analytic and distributional solutions for linear differential equations. II (Q810704)

[For part I see ibid. 148, No.2, 390-421 (1990; Zbl 0719.34020).] Distributional solutions for certain classes of ordinary differential and functional equations are presented as infinite series of the delta function and its derivatives. Particular attention is given to the confluent hypergeometric equation. Existence and non-existence theorems in spaces of infinite-order distributions are obtained for linear equations with polynomial coefficients.
