Unfortunately I don't know the best reference, but I think Evans covers some of this. Whether there are some issues if $S$ is not embedded or $\dim S \leq \dim M - 2$ I do not know. | |

Oct 28, 2021 at 16:25 | comment | added | Mattis Bakken | That's interesting. In my setup, I can actually assume that $u : S \to \mathbf{R}$ is analytic. So you say the answer to my question is 'yes' if $S$ and $u$ are analytic? | |
Oct 28, 2021 at 16:21 | comment | added | Leo Moos | I think the issue would basically be the same: you can't extend non-analytic 'initial data'. That being said---and perhaps you're already aware of this---if the given function $u: S \to \mathbf{R}$ is analytic, then some form of Cauchy-Kovalevskaya should give you the desired harmonic extension. | |
Oct 28, 2021 at 16:15 | comment | added | Mattis Bakken | (+1) Thanks for your answer; that's very interesting. In the examples that I had in mind, the submanifold $S$ was actually real-analytic (in fact holomorphic). Do you think there can still be an issue? | |
