The torus related Riemann problem

Abstract

The Riemann jump problem is solved for analytic functions of several complex variables with the unit torus as the jump manifold. A well-posed formulation is given which does not demand any solvability conditions. The higher dimensional Plemelj–Sokhotzki formula for analytic functions in torus domains is established. The canonical functions of the Riemann problem for torus domains are represented and applied in order to construct solutions for both of the homogeneous and inhomogeneous problems. Thus contrary to earlier research the results are similar to the respective ones for just one variable. A connection between the Riemann and the Riemann–Hilbert boundary value problem for the unit polydisc is explained.
