The abstract Goursat problem

Hector O. Fattorini

Vol. 37 (1971), No. 1, 51–83
Abstract

Let Dα be a differential monomial in n variables. We try to identify in this paper those closed, densely defined linear operators A (in a fairly general class of locally convex spaces) such that the equation (Dα A)S = δ I has a solution; here S is an operator-valued distribution in n variables with support in the cone of nonnegative coordinates. The results are applied to the study of the equation (Dα A)U = T,T a distribution with values in the space where A is defined, and to the formulation and solution of an “abstract Goursat problem” that reduces to the abstract Cauchy problem when

n = 1.
