On meromorphic solutions of linear partial differential equations of second order

This paper is concerned with entire and meromorphic solutions of linear partial differential equations of second order with polynomial coefficients. We will characterize entire solutions for a class of partial differential equations associated with the Jacobi differential equations, and give a uniqueness theorem for their meromorphic solutions in the sense of the value distribution theory, which also applies to general linear partial differential equations of second order. The results are complemented by various examples for completeness.
