Abstract

In this paper we study the Cauchy problem for overdetermined systems of linear partial differential operators with constant coefficients in some spaces of \(\omega \)-ultradifferentiable functions in the sense of Braun et al. (Results Math 17(3–4):207–237, 1990), for non-quasianalytic weight functions \(\omega \). We show that existence of solutions of the Cauchy problem is equivalent to the validity of a Phragmén–Lindelöf principle for entire and plurisubharmonic functions on some irreducible affine algebraic varieties.
