A mixed problem for the generalized Euler-Poisson-Darboux equation in an exceptional case (Q1109981)

We investigate a certain mixed problem for the equation \[ (1)\quad L_{\alpha}u\equiv (x_ 0\partial^ 2_ 0+\alpha \partial_ 0-B)u=0, \] where \(B=\) \(\sum^{m}_{i=1}\)(x\({}_ i\partial_ i^ 2+\beta_ i\partial_ i)\), \((\alpha,\beta_ 1,...,\beta_ m)=const\), and also \[ (2)\quad \alpha \leq 1,\quad \alpha \in {\mathbb{Z}},\quad \beta_ i>0,\quad \beta_ i\in {\mathbb{R}},\quad i=1,...,m. \] We prove the uniqueness of the solution and write out its explicit representation. We note that in Q for \(\alpha\leq 0\), \(\alpha\in {\mathbb{Z}}\), \(\beta_ i=1/2\), \(i=1,...,m\), in the variables \(\eta_ i=2\sqrt{x_ i}\), \(i=0\), 1,...,m, Eq. (1) coincides with the exceptional case of the Euler-Poisson-Darboux equation \((k=1- \alpha)\).
