Let $\mathbb{B}$ be the unit ball in $\mathbb{R}^n$. Then it is true that if $u\in L^1(\mathbb{B})$ such that $\Delta(u)=0$ on $\mathbb{B}\backslash\{0\}$, then $\Delta(u)$, as a distribution on $\mathbb{B}$, is supported at the origin and has order at most one. This can be shown by noting that the fundamental solution to $\Delta(F)=\delta_{0}$ is a constant multiple of $\log|x|$ (for $n=2$) and $1/|x|^{n-2}$ (for $n\geq 3$) so its second derivatives do not belong to $L^1$.

Does this remain true for general elliptic differential operators? More specifically, let $D$ be an elliptic differential operators of order $N$ with smooth coefficients on $\mathbb{B}$. Suppose $u\in L^1(\mathbb{B})$ such that $D(u)=0$ on $\mathbb{B}\backslash\{0\}$. Consider $D(u)$ as a distribution on $\mathbb{B}$. It is obvious that the order of $D(u)$ is at most $N$ but must it always be strictly smaller than $N$? What I need is the case $D$ having polynomial coefficients with order $N=n+2$ so if the conclusion is not true in general, would it be true in this case?
