Abstract

We study the elastic Herglotz wave functions, which are entire solutions of the spectral Navier equation appearing in linearized elasticity theory with \(L^2\)-far-field patterns. We characterize in three-dimensions the set of these functions \({\varvec{\mathcal {W}}},\) as a closed subspace of a Hilbert space \({\varvec{\mathcal {H}}}\) of vector-valued functions such that they and their spherical gradients belong to a certain weighted \(L^2\) space. This allows us to prove that \({\varvec{\mathcal {W}}}\) is a reproducing kernel Hilbert space and to calculate the reproducing kernel. Finally, we outline the proof for the two-dimensional case and give the corresponding reproducing kernel.

Notes

  1. We have found a misprint on identity (6) of [8]. There, the factor |x| has to be removed.
