Characterization of the homogeneous polynomials P for which (P + Q)(D) admits a continuous linear right inverse for all lower order perturbations Q

Rüdiger W. Braun, Reinhold Meise and B.A. Taylor

Vol. 192 (2000), No. 2, 201–218
Abstract

Those homogeneous polynomials P are characterized for which for arbitrary lower order polynomials Q the partial differential operator (P + Q)(D) admits a continuous linear right inverse if regarded as an operator from the space of all C-functions on n into itself. It is shown that P has this property if and only if P is of principal type and real up to a complex constant and has no elliptic factor.
