The authors study the equation \[ L(u) \equiv (xu_x)_x + (yu_y)_y = f(x,y) \] in the domain \(D\) bounded by some Jordan curves \(\sigma_i \subset \{xy>0\}\) and the characteristics \[ \chi_i: \sqrt{|x|} + \sqrt{|y|} = \sqrt{a_i}, \quad \chi_i\subset \{xy<0\}, \quad a_i>0, \quad i=1,2, \] of the equation. The equation is elliptic in the domain \(\{xy>0\}\), hyperbolic in the domain \(\{xy<0\}\), and parabolic on the line \(\{ xy=0\}\). The problem under study can be formulated as follows: find a solution \(u\in C^2(D)\cap C(\overline{D})\) to the above equation in the domain \(D\) such that \(u|_{\sigma_1\cup\sigma_2} = 0.\) A boundary value problem with a boundary condition given on the elliptic part of the boundary is sometimes called an E boundary value problem. The authors prove that, under the condition \[ (xn_x^2 + yn_y^2)(n_x + n_y) \geq 0 \quad \forall (x,y)\in\sigma_1\cup\sigma_2, \] the a priori estimate \( \|u\|_1 \leq \text{ const }\|f\|_0 \) holds, and then existence of a weak solution \(u\in L_2(D)\) follows from the Riesz theorem.
