problem for the Laplace equation was solved for an infinite layer in
n
-
dimensional space. The solutions of this problem for the bandwidth and
the infinite layer in three-dimensional space obtained by the method of
reflection are known [5]. In this work, the problem has been solved by
the Fourier transform method. The recurrence relation between the integral
kernels for n- dimensional and (
n
+ 2
)-dimensional layers was obtained
and for
n
= 2
,

,

these kernels are expressed in terms of elementary
functions (for
n
= 3
Bessel functions are also used).
