1. Introduction. The potential theory of real harmonic tensors, which was first studied by Hodge (5), offers a variety of problems by no means all of which have yet been examined. In the present paper there are formulated the solutions of some boundary value problems for the Poisson equations associated with coclosed harmonic forms. These problems include as special cases a number of previous results on coclosed harmonic forms and harmonic fields.
