Given a homogeneous elliptic partial differential operator $L$ with constant complex coefficients and a class of functions (jet-distributions) which are defined on a (relatively) closed subset of a domain $\Omega$ in ${{\mathbf{R}}^{n}}$ and which belong locally to a Banach space $V$, we consider the problem of approximating in the norm of $V$ the functions in this class by “analytic” and “meromorphic” solutions of the equation $Lu\,=\,0$. We establish new Roth, Arakelyan (including tangential) and Carleman type theorems for a large class of Banach spaces $V$ and operators $L$. Important applications to boundary value problems of solutions of homogeneous elliptic partial differential equations are obtained, including the solution of a generalized Dirichlet problem.
