The Riemann-Hilbert problem in weighted classes of Cauchy type integrals with density from \(L^{P(\cdot)}(\Gamma)\) (Q1042637)

The paper deals with the Riemann-Hilbert problem in the following setting: find a function \(\varphi\), belonging to a particular class of functions analytic in a simply connected domain bounded by a simple close curve \(\Gamma\), whose boundary values \(\varphi^+\) satisfy the conjugation condition \(\Re [(a(t)+i b(t))\varphi^+(t)]=c(t)\) on the boundary, with given real-valued functions \(a,b,c\). The class of interest consists of functions that can be represented in the form \(\varphi(z)=\omega^{-1}(z)(K_\Gamma \varphi)(z)\), where \(\omega(z)\) is of the form \(\omega(z)=\prod_{k=1}^\nu (z-t_k)^{\alpha_k}\) with some \(t_k\in\Gamma\), the \(\alpha_k\)'s are real, and \((K_\Gamma \varphi)(z)\) is a Cauchy type integral with density integrable with a variable exponent \(p(t)\). The authors give solvability conditions and construct the solution. The solvability conditions are shown to largely depend on the values of \(p(t)\) at the angular points of \(\Gamma\), the angles at these points, the exponents \(\alpha_k\), and the jumps of \(a\) and \(b\) at the discontinuity points.
