dc.description.abstract | Difference equation techniques are applied to determine sufficient conditions on polynomials P(x,y) for which the Fischer space related differential equation.;(DIAGRAM, TABLE OR GRAPHIC OMITTED...PLEASE SEE DAI).;has (a) no non-trivial solutions f(x,y); (b) locally convergent solutions; and (c) formal solutions; {lcub}where P(x,y) is a polynomial with complex coefficients,;(DIAGRAM, TABLE OR GRAPHIC OMITTED...PLEASE SEE DAI).;is the differential operator whose coefficients are the complex conjugates of the coefficients of P, and.;(DIAGRAM, TABLE OR GRAPHIC OMITTED...PLEASE SEE DAI).;Solutions of a general difference equation in two dimensions, (SIGMA) K(,i)C(,m+ai, n+bi) = 0 with K(,i) non-vanishing, are analyzed. Particular emphasis is placed on solutions with C(,mn) = 0 in specified regions of the plane.;Difference equations corresponding to the differential equation.;(DIAGRAM, TABLE OR GRAPHIC OMITTED...PLEASE SEE DAI).;(where P and Q are polynomials) are examined to determine sufficient conditions on P and Q for which the equation has (a) no non-trivial solution; (b) polynomial solutions; and (c) formal solutions. | |
