Interchange the two Wirtinger derivatives in part (i). The same real fundamental solution of the Laplace equation $L$ givesThe calculation is valid for distributions by the same vanishing boundary term estimate. Any other fundamental solution differs by a distribution $H$ with ${\partial }_{z}H=0$. Then $\Delta H=0$, so the regularity argument of part (ii) makes $H$ smooth, and its Cauchy-Riemann equations make it an antiholomorphic function. On the whole plane it can be written $H(z)=h(\bar{z})$ with $h$ an entire function. Conversely every such $H$ has ${\partial }_{z}H=0$. Therefore
