This self-contained treatment develops the theory of generalized functions and the theory of distributions, and it systematically applies them to a variety of problems in partial differential equations. Based on material included in the books of L. Schwartz, who developed the theory of distributions, and of Gelfand and Shilov, who deal with generalized functions and their use in solving the Cauchy problem, the text incorporates the author's own research. Geared toward upper-level undergraduates and graduate students, it covers the Cauchy and Goursat problems, fundamental solutions, existence and differentiality of solutions of equations with constants, coefficients, and related topics. 1963 ed.
