Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to characterize all the entire solutions of the homogeneous Helmholtz equation (solutions in mathbbRd) arising from the Fourier extension operator of distributions in Sobolev spaces of the sphere Halpha(mathbbSd−1), with alphainmathbbR. We present two characterizations. The first one is written in terms of certain L2-weighted norms involving real powers of the spherical Laplacian. The second one is in the spirit of the classical description of the Herglotz wave functions given by P. Hartman and C. Wilcox. For alpha>0 this characterization involves a multivariable square function evaluated in a vector of entire solutions of the Helmholtz equation, while for alpha<0 it is written in terms of an spherical integral operator acting as a fractional integration operator. Finally, we also characterize all the solutions that are the Fourier extension operator of distributions in the sphere.
