A calculus approach to hyperfunctions I

Abstract

In this paper, we shall give a new characterization of hyperfunctions without algebraic method and apply to give simpler proofs to problems discussed in [3], Chapter 9. In [3], the spaces of hyperfunctions A′(K) with compact support in K ⊂ Rn (n ≧ 1) is considered as the dual of the space A(K) of functions which are real analytic near K. Each element u of A′(K) is characterized as a density of a double layer potential in Rn × R.
