Holmgren's Uniqueness Theorem
In the theory of partial differential equations, Holmgren's uniqueness theorem, or simply Holmgren's theorem, named after the Swedish mathematician Erik Albert Holmgren (1873–1943), is a uniqueness result for linear partial differential equations with real analytic coefficients. Simple form of Holmgren's theorem We will use the multi-index notation: Let \alpha=\\in \N_0^n,, with \N_0 standing for the nonnegative integers; denote , \alpha, =\alpha_1+\cdots+\alpha_n and : \partial_x^\alpha = \left(\frac\right)^ \cdots \left(\frac\right)^. Holmgren's theorem in its simpler form could be stated as follows: :Assume that ''P'' = ∑, ''α'', ≤''m'' ''A''''α''(x)∂ is an elliptic partial differential operator with real-analytic coefficients. If ''Pu'' is real-analytic in a connected open neighborhood ''Ω'' ⊂ R''n'', then ''u'' is also real-analytic. This statement, with "analytic" replaced by "smooth", is Hermann Weyl's ...
