Resumo

In this paper, we characterize all the distributions F is an element of D'(U) such that there exists a continuous weak solution upsilon is an element of C(U, C-n) (with U subset of Omega ) to the divergence-type equation L-1{*}upsilon(1) + ... + L-n{*}upsilon(n) = F-1 where [L-1 , ..., L-n] is an elliptic system of linearly independent vector fields with smooth complex coefficients defined on Omega subset of R-N. In case where (L-1 , ..., L-n) is the usual gradient field on R-N, we recover the classical result for the divergence equation proved by T. De Pauw and W. Pfeffer. Its proof is based on the closed range theorem and inspired by {[}3] and {[}6] in the classical case. Our method slightly differs from theirs by relying on the Banach-Grothendieck theorem and introducing tools from pseudodifferential operators, useful in our local setting of a system of complex vector fields with variable coefficients.
