The Cauchy–Kowalevski Theorem

Given a Cauchy problem, the Cauchy–Kowalevski theorem states:
If all the functions Fi are analytic in some neighborhood of the point

(t0,x10,x20,,ϕj,k0,k1,,kn0,),

and if all the functions ϕj(k) are analytic in some neighborhood of the point

(x10,x20,,xn0),

then the Cauchy problem has a unique analytic solution in some neighborhood of the point

(t0,x10,x20,,xn0).
