This collection of results on partial differential equations employs certain elementary identities for plane and spherical integrals of an arbitrary function, showing how a variety of results on fairly general differential equations follow from those identities. Explores the decomposition of arbitrary functions into functions of the type of plane waves; Radon transformation; more. 1955 edition.
Unabridged republication of the edition published by Interscience Publishers, Inc., New York, 1955.
