Modern people rarely read old books, especialy in German. And all literature on the subject until the middle of 20 century was in German. (I am in a privileged position since many German books have been translated into Russian. Unfortunately my German is poor). | |

I learned about dipole Green functions from Don Marshall's preprint: sites.math.washington.edu/~marshall/preprints/… which was incorporated in his book. There is no reference to earlier work, so I assumed it was new. Do you know if Hurwitz, Courant, Nevanlinna, etc. proved existence of dipole Green functions on any Riemann surface? | |
