Abstract

In this paper, we study the restrictions of solutions of a scalar system of PDEs to a proper subspace of the domain \(\mathbb {R}^n\). The object of study is associated with certain intersection ideals. In the paper, we provide explicit algorithms to calculate these intersection ideals. We next deal with when a given subspace is “free” with respect to the solution set of a system of PDEs—this notion of freeness is related to restrictions and intersection ideals. We again provide algorithms and checkable algebraic criterion to answer the question of freeness of a subspace. Finally, we provide an upper bound to the dimension of free subspaces that can be associated with the solution set of a system of PDEs.

Notes

  1. We came to know from an anonymous reviewer that Janet had obtained an explicit way of returning this (usually infinite) sequence.

  2. It was brought to our notice by an anonymous reviewer that this result, too, was contained in Janet’s work on more general classes of systems of PDEs.
