Abstract

We define the elementary solution of the polyharmonic equation, with the help of which an explicit representation of the Green’s function of the Dirichlet problem for the polyharmonic equation in the unit ball is given for all space dimensions except for some finite set. On the basis of the obtained Green’s function, the solution of the homogeneous Dirichlet problem in the unit ball is constructed. As an example, an explicit form of the solution of the homogeneous Dirichlet problem for the inhomogeneous polyharmonic equation with the simplest polynomial right-hand side is found.
