Remarks on null solutions of linear partial differential equations

Let \(P=ax\) \(m\partial_ x+bx\) \(n\partial_ y+c\), (x,y)\(\in {\mathbb{R}}\times {\mathbb{R}}^ d,\) where m,n,d\(\in \{0,1,2,...\}\), \(m\geq 1\), \(\partial_ x=\partial /\partial x\), \(b\partial_ y=b_ 1\partial /\partial y_ 1+...+b_ d\partial /\partial y_ d\), and the coefficients are defined in a neighborhood of the origin. The author assumes that the coefficients are analytic, or of \(C^{\infty}\) class when a and \(b_ j\) are real-valued, and treats the problem of existence (or non-existence) of solutions of \(Pu=0\) with (0,0)\(\in \sup p u\subset \{x\geq 0\}\). If it is assumed that the multiplicity of the characteristic hyperplane \(x=0\) is constant on itself and finite, then the following three cases occur: (A) \(1=m\leq n\), a(0,0)\(\neq 0\), (B) \(2\leq m\leq n\), a(0,0)\(\neq 0\), (C) \(0\leq n<m\), \(b_ j(0,0)\neq 0\) for some j. The author proves three theorems which are corresponding to these three cases. The case of variable multiplicity is illustrated by an example in \({\mathbb{R}}^ 2.\)
