Abstract: Fundamental and singular solutions of Lamé equations for media with arbitrary elastic anisotropy are constructed on the basis of multipolar expansions (expansions in spherical harmonics) of symbols and the corresponding operators. Theorems of convergence are formulated. A posteriori error estimates are presented.
