Much work has been done in the investigation of the properties of solutions of linear elliptic systems of partial differential equations. Among these systems, the class of Beltrami systems has been studied for many years and has been shown to be of fundamental importance. Another class, perhaps of equal importance, is the class defined by Bers (1), which the author has taken the liberty of calling Bers systems. Solutions of these systems will be called Beltrami and Bers functions respectively.
