Abstract
We consider quasilinear partial differential equations whose linearizations have a symplectic characteristic variety of codimension 2. We consider in detail a model case of a sum of squares of (non-linear) vector fields with a positive definite, real analytic function h(.,.,.) and prove that moderately smooth solutions u must be real analytic locally where the right-hand side is. The techniques even in this case are new and we consider only this model in this first paper in order to avoid detailed consideration of the first author's complicated localization of high powers of ∂/∂t introduced in Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. USA 75 (1980) 3027; Acta Mathematica 145, 177.I documenti in SFERA sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
