Linear elliptic equation

Let $\Delta:=\partial_z\,\partial_{\overline {z}} $ be the Laplacian operator. I look for a particular non-trivial solution $u$ of $$\Delta u=\frac{a}{1-|z|^2}u$$ where $u\in C^2(\mathbb{D})$ and $a\...

Harmonic polynomials on the sphere

Let $\mathbb{S}=\{x\in\mathbb{R}^n|x_1^2+\ldots +x_n^2=1\}$ be the unit sphere in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $\mathbb{C}[x]=\mathbb{C}[x_1,\ldots ,x_n]$ the complex-valued polynomial functions on $\mathbb{R}^n$, ...

Invariance of the space of harmonic functions under derivation associated to a non-vanishing vector field

Let $X$ be a non-vanishing real analytic vector field on an open manifold $M$. What kind of obstructions would appear when we search for a Riemannian metric on $M$ such that the space of ...

Are all the mappings which satisfy this equation scaled isometries?

Let $M,N$ be smooth oriented $d$-dimensional Riemannian manifolds, $\, f:M \to N$ a smooth map. Let $\Omega^1(M,f^*TN)=\Gamma(T^*M \otimes f^*TN)$ be the space of $f^*TN$-valued one-forms. Let $d$ ...

Harmonic functions (eigenfunctions of the Laplace-Beltrami operator) of SO(2n)/U(n)

Have the eigenfunctions of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on $SO(2n)/U(n)$ been worked out explicitly? If not, how does one approach finding them? (I'm thinking of this as in analogy with the ...
