Abstract
The problem
is called the initial-value problem for the potential equation. By way of examples, we shall show that for this initial-value problem the third requirement cannot, in general, be satisfied, and that the second requirement can in general be satisfied only if the u i , i = 0, 1 are analytic functions in R n-1.
