Localizations of partial differential operators and surjectivity on real analytic functions

From MaRDI portal





The paper deals with the problem of the analytic surjectivity of linear partial differential operators with constant coefficients \(P(D)\), namely for a given open set \(\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n\) the question is when \(P(D) : A(\Omega)\to A(\Omega)\) is surjective. Several authors studied the problem, in particular \textit{L. Hörmander} [Invent. Math. 21, 151-182 (1973; Zbl 0282.35015)] gave a general abstract necessary and sufficient condition on \(\Omega\) and \(P(D)\). Moving to more explicit conditions, the author here applies his preceding result [Note Mat. 17, 25-29, 29-59 (1997;Zbl 0976.35011)] concerning the extension of analyticity, to prove that hyperbolicity of the localizations of the principal part \(P_m\) and local hyperbolicity of \(P_m\) are necessary for surjectivity in many cases. In particular we quote the following: Let \(N\) be locally noncharacteristic for \(P_m\) at any point of the characteristic manifold. Then surjectivity holds for the half-space \(\Omega_N\) if and only if \(P_m\) is hyperbolic-elliptic with respect to \(N\), in the sense of \textit{J. Fehrman} [Ark. Mat. 13, 209-235 (1975; Zbl 0313.35009)].
