The overdetermined Cauchy problem

Chiara Boiti, Mauro Nacinovich (1997)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

We consider the (characteristic and non-characteristic) Cauchy problem for a system of constant coefficients partial differential equations with initial data on an affine subspace of arbitrary codimension. We show that evolution is equivalent to the validity of a principle on the complex characteristic variety and we study the relationship of this condition with the one introduced by Hörmander in the case of scalar operators and initial data on a hypersurface.

Universal prolongation of linear partial differential equations on filtered manifolds

Katharina Neusser (2009)

Archivum Mathematicum

The aim of this article is to show that systems of linear partial differential equations on filtered manifolds, which are of weighted finite type, can be canonically rewritten as first order systems of a certain type. This leads immediately to obstructions to the existence of solutions. Moreover, we will deduce that the solution space of such equations is always finite dimensional.
