Abstract:

Two examples of nonsolvable partial differential operators with multiple characteristics are presented. They illustrate the possibility that certain terms in the principal part may play no role in determining the solvability properties of the operator. This situation cannot occur for simple characteristics, where solvability is determined by the principal part.
