characteristics second-type Volterra integral equations solvability uniqueness

Solutions to PDEs in closed form (35C05) PDEs of mixed type (35M10) Volterra integral equations (45D05)

The problem under consideration is stated as follows: for the equation \[ 0= \begin{cases} \dfrac{\partial^2u}{\partial x^2}-\dfrac{\partial u}{\partial y}+ a(x,y)\dfrac{\partial u}{\partial x}, & y \geq 0, \\ \dfrac{\partial^2u}{\partial x^2}+y\dfrac{\partial^2 u}{\partial y^2}+ \alpha \dfrac{\partial u}{\partial y}, & y < 0 \end{cases} \tag{1} \] in a domain \(D=D_1 \cup D_2^* \cup AB\) find a solution \(u(x,y) \in C(\overline{D})\) which is regular in a domain \(D_1\), generalized in a domain \(D_2^*\), satisfies the boundary conditions \[ u|_{AA_0}=\varphi_0(y), \;u|_{BB_0}=\varphi_1(y), \quad 0\leq y \leq 1, \tag{2} \] \[ u|_{EC_1}=\psi_1(x), \;x_0/2 \leq x \leq x_0, \quad u|_{EC_2}=\psi_2(x), \;x_0 \leq x \leq (1+x_0)/2 \tag{3} \] and satisfies a certain transmission condition on the parabolic line of degeneracy. Here the domain \(D_1\) is bounded by the segments \(AB, BB_0, A_0B_0, AA_0\) of the straight lines \(y=0, x=1, y=1, x=0\) respectively. The domain \(D_2^*\) is bounded by \(AB\) and by characteristics of equation (1) for \(y<0\), \(\;AC_1: \;x-2\sqrt{-y}=0\), \(\;EC_1: \;x+2\sqrt{-y}=x_0\), \(\;EC_2: \;x-2\sqrt{-y}=x_0\), and \(\;BC_2: \;x+2\sqrt{-y}=1\), where \(x_0\) is a fixed point in the interval \((0,1)\). It is assumed that the coefficient \(\alpha\) meets the condition \(\alpha=-n+\alpha_0\), where \(n=1,2,3,\ldots\) and \(0<\alpha_0<1/2\) or \(1/2<\alpha_0<1\). An explicit representation of a generalized solution in the hyperbolic domain \(D_2^*\) is given. The boundary value problem is reduced to the second-type Volterra integral equations. The solvability of the boundary value problem arises from the solvability of the above-mentioned equations under some additional conditions on the coefficient \(a(x,y)\) and appropriate smoothness conditions for the functions presented in (2), (3). For the entire collection see [Zbl 0910.00043].
