Abstract
In this paper, for a mixed elliptic-hyperbolic type equation with various degeneration orders and singular coefficients, theorems of uniqueness and existence of the solution to the problem with a missing Tricomi condition on boundary characteristic and with an analog of Frankl condition on different parts of the cut boundary along the degeneration segment in the mixed domain are proved. On the degeneration line segment, a general conjugation condition is set, and on the boundary of the elliptic domain and degeneration segment, the Bitsadze–Samarskii condition is posed. The considered problem, based on integral representations of the solution to the Dirichlet problem (in elliptic part of the domain) and a modified Cauchy problem (in hyperbolic part of the domain), is reduced to solving a non-standard singular Tricomi integral equation with a non-Fredholm integral operator (featuring an isolated first-order singularity in the kernel) in non-characteristic part of the equation. Non-standard approaches are applied here in constructing the solution algorithm. Through successive applications of the theory of singular integral equations and then the Wiener–Hopf equation theory, the non-standard singular Tricomi integral equation is reduced to a Fredholm integral equation of the second kind, the unique solvability of which follows from the uniqueness theorem for the problem.

1. Introduction
The theory of mixed-type equations is currently one of the main branches of the modern theory of partial differential equations due to its important applications in solving many practical problems. The foundations of this theory were laid in the fundamental works of F. Tricomi, S. Gellerstedt, A.V. Bitsadze, and F.I. Frankl. There is a whole range of works by mathematician scholars that study the main mixed problems (the Tricomi problem, the Gellerstedt problem, the general mixed problem of A.V. Bitsadze, the Frankl problem) and propose new well-posed non-classical problems for mixed type equations. The main bibliography on these issues is contained in books by scientists, such as A.V. Bitsadze, L. Bers, F.I. Frankl, I.N. Vekua, M.S. Salakhitdinov, M.M. Smirnov, and A.M. Nakhushev [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11].
A significant contribution to the study of mixed-type equations was made by the research of M. Protter, K. Friedrichs, P. Lax and N. Phillips, K. Morawetz, A.K. Aziz and M. Schneider, Sh.A. Alimov, and E.I. Moiseev [12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21].
F. Tricomi [22] studied the main boundary value problem for a model equation of mixed type, which is now known as the Tricomi problem. The existence of a solution to this problem was investigated using the theory of singular integral equations. S.G. Mikhlin [23], using Carleman’s results, developed an algorithm for solving the singular integral equation of F. Tricomi, and A.V. Bitsadze formulated and proved the extremum principle for the Tricomi problem, which is now widely used in proving the uniqueness and stability of solutions to problems for mixed type equations.
I. Frankl [24] formulated a problem with a nonlocal condition on the boundary of ellipticity and hyperbolicity for the Chaplygin equation. The well-posedness of this problem was proven by K. Moravetz [25] and Yu.V. Devingtal [26]. G. Karatoprakliev [27] studied a problem for mixed-type equations with general conjugation conditions.
After these works, the theory of boundary value problems for degenerate equations and equations of mixed type developed in many directions: S. Gellerstedt [28], K.I. Babenko [29], A.I. Kozhanov [30], S.P. Pulkin [31], A.V. Bitsadze, M.S. Salakhiddinov [32], and others have studied the Tricomi problem for more general equations of mixed type; V.A.Bitsadze [33], A.M.Nakhushev [34], M.M.Smirnov [10], S.Gellerstedt [28,35], F.I.Frankl [36], A.V. Bitsadze, A.A. Samarsky [37] and others investigated various modifications of the Tricomi problem (including nonlocal problems); Sh.A. Alimov [38], M.S. Salakhitdinov [39], M.S. Salakhitdinov, A.K. Urinov [40], A.K. Urinov [41], A.S. Berdyshev [42,43,44,45,46], and many other researchers have studied spectral problems for equations of mixed type.
The most significant results and a comprehensive bibliography on such problems are presented in the monographs by A.V. Bitsadze [2], M.S. Salakhitdinov [8,9], A.M. Nakhushev [11], E.I. Moiseev [47], A.P. Soldatov [48], A.S. Berdyshev [49], A.I. Kozhanov [30], and others.
By the early 1970s, many issues in the theory of boundary value problems for degenerate equations and equations of mixed type had already acquired a mathematically complete form, and further progress in this direction was largely determined by qualitatively new problems.
In recent years, there has been intensive development of the theory of boundary value problems for mixed-type equations with singular coefficients in lower-order terms [50]. A nonlocal problem for a mixed-type equation with a singular coefficient in an unbounded domain was studied in the work of M. Ruziyev and M. Reissig [51], while the works of G. Feng [52], Z. Feng and J. Kuang [53] are devoted to the study of boundary value problems for nonlinear mixed-type equations.
The present work is devoted to the study of issues related to the unique solvability of a Tricomi-type problem with a missing boundary condition on the characteristic boundary and an analog of the Frankl condition on the degeneration segment for a certain class of mixed-type equations with varying orders of degeneration and singular coefficients. The degenerate equations with singular coefficients considered in this paper differ from the well-known classical problems in that the well-posedness of the standard Cauchy problem (in the hyperbolic part of the domain) and the Holmgren problem (in the elliptic part) does not always hold. In the usual formulation, these problems may turn out to be unsolvable in the domains under consideration if the mixed-type equation degenerates along a line that is simultaneously a characteristic (an envelope of a family of characteristics) or if the coefficients of the equation in the lower-order terms are singular. Therefore, in such cases, it is natural to consider modified Cauchy and Holmgren problems, where the conditions on the degeneration line are given with weight functions.
The problem under investigation differs from known problems in that, on one part of the boundary characteristic, the values of the sought function and a Frankl-type condition are specified on different edges of the cut along the segment where the equation degenerates. On the segment of the degeneration line, a general conjugation condition is given, and in the elliptic region of the equation, the Bitsadze–Samarskii condition is imposed, which pointwise links the boundary of the ellipticity region of the equation with the lines of degeneration. At the same time, part of the boundary of the hyperbolic region is freed from boundary conditions.
By modifying the extremum principle of A.V. Bitsadze for an equation of mixed type with singular coefficients, the uniqueness of the formulated problem has been proven, and the solvability of the problem is reduced to the study of non-standard singular integral equations of Tricomi type with a non-singular part of the kernel and a non-Fredholm operator in the equation.
2. Preliminaries
Let be a finite simply connected domain of the complex plane bounded for by a smooth curve with endpoints and defined by the equation and for by the characteristics and of the equation
where are positive constants, and
Let and be parts of the domain lying in the half-planes and , respectively, and let and be the points where the boundary characteristics and intersect with the characteristics of Equation (1), emanating from the point , where is some number belonging to the interval on the axis .
Let be a diffeomorphism from the set of points of the segment to the set of points of the segment such that As an example of such a function, consider the linear function where
Note that Equation (1) in the upper half-plane is an elliptic-type equation, and in the lower half-plane it is a hyperbolic-type equation, and the orders of parabolic degeneration of these equations on the axis are different [54] (p. 75).
In the Tricomi problem [22] (p. 29) the value of the desired function is given at all points of the boundary characteristic In the present work, within a mixed domain for Equation (1) the well-posedness of the problem is investigated when the boundary characteristic is arbitrarily divided into two parts and and on the first part the value of sought function is apecified (incomplete Tricomi condition), while the second part is free from boundary conditions and is instead replaced by an analog of the Frankl condition [24,26,55] on different parts of the cut edges along the degeneration segment . On the curve and the degeneration segment the Bitsadze–Samarskii condition [37,56] is imposed.
3. Formulation of Problem
Problem . It is required to find a function in the domain satisfying the following conditions:
- (1)
- is continuous in each of the closed subdomains and ;
- (2)
- the function belongs to the class and satisfies Equation (1) in the domain ;
- (3)
- the function is a generalized solution of class in the domain [7] (p. 35), [10] (p. 104);
- (4)
- on the segment the line of parabolic degeneration of Equation (1) the general conjugation condition is fulfilled [27],where are given continuously differentiable functions on such that , and limits for may have singularities of order lower than where
- (5)
- the function satisfies the following conditions:
Note that conditions (2) and (3) are general conjugation conditions, (4) is the Bitsadze–Samarsky condition connecting the values of the desired function on the curve and on the degeneracy segment (5) is an incomplete Tricomi condition on a part of the boundary characteristic (6) is an analog of the Frankl condition on different edges of the section along the degeneracy segment .
Let us introduce notations:
By virtue of the notations (8) and (9), the general conjugation conditions (2) and (3), as well as the analogue of the Frankl condition (6), respectively, take the form
and
Taking into account (10), the condition (12) can be represented as
where
If in Equation (1) then (1) becomes the Gellerstedt equation with a singular coefficient for which problems with analogues of the Frankl condition (13) have been studied in [57,58,59,60].
4. Results
4.1. Uniqueness of the Solution to Problem
The Darboux formula, which provides in the domain the solution to the modified Cauhcy problem with initial data (8) has the form [7] (p. 34), [61].
where
is Euler’s gamma function [10] (p. 4).
By virtue of Darboux’s formula, it is not difficult to obtain the following equality from boundary condition (5):
where
Due to the conjugation conditions (11) and (12), equality (15) is written as
where
here
are fractional-order integro-differential operators in the sense of Riemann–Liouville [7]. Equality (17) is the first functional relation between unknown functions and introduced into the interval from the domain . The following theorem holds.
Theorem 1.
Problem when the following conditions are met
has only a trivial (identically zero) solution.
Proof.
Assume the contrary, that under the conditions of Theorem 1, problem has nontrivial solution. Then in the closed domain the desired solution and therefore it reaches its greatest positive value (GPV) and least negative value (LNV). Suppose that is the point of positive maximum of function in domain According to Hopf’s principle [2] (p. 25)
Let Due to (17), where then from the corresponding homogeneous condition (13) it is followed that where i.e., the value of function on is less than the value of on , thus the function does not reach its GPV on the interval , i.e.,
Taking into account from (13) we have and therefore Then the extremum point In this case, by the extremum principle for fractional-order differential operators and [10] (p. 19) at the point , the point of positive maximum of the function we have hence from (15) (with ) we get On the other hand, at this point, by the known analogue of the Zaremba–Giraud extremum principle, we have [7] (p. 74), [2] (p. 26). The resulting contradiction shows that the point of the positive maximum
Thus, the point , the point of positive maximum of desired function does not belong to the degenerate segment , i.e.,
From this, due to the inequality from the boundary condition (4) (with ) and taking inequality (17), into account, we similarly conclude that the desired function also does not reach its GPV at points of the curve Thus, the solution to problem under the conditions of Theorem 1 reaches its GPV in domain at points or
Similarly, as shown above, the solution of problem under the conditions of Theorem 1 reaches its LNV in domain at points or By virtue of (17): from boundary condition (4) (with ) it is followed that and so in domain .
Hence, it follows that
Therefore, from the conditions of conjugation (2) and (3) (with ) it is followed that
Now the solution of problem in domain is restored as the solution of a modified Cauchy problem with null data (18) using Darboux’s Formula (14) and we obtain that , also in domain Theorem 1 is proved. □
4.2. Solvability of Problem for the Case
Theorem 2.
The solution to problem exists, when the following conditions are met:
Proof.
The solution of Dirichlet problem in domain
for Equation (1), which satisfies the boundary conditions
has the form [7]
where is the length of the curve measured from point to point is the length of the whole curve ,
From (20), assuming after some transformations [7], Ref. [10] (p. 55) taking into account the boundary condition (4), it is easy to calculate that
where
By virtue of (21), from relation (16), excluding , we obtain
where
Note that relation (22) is an integro-differential equation with respect to unknown function in the interval Let us continue to study Equation (22). Applying the fractional order integration operator [10] (p. 16) to Equality (22), where we obtain
where . □
Lemma 1.
The following identities are valid:
Proof.
Let us prove identity (24)
where
Calculating the inner integral from (28) and (29), we have
Here, by performing the integration operation by parts, we obtain
Due to the identities
equality (30) is written in the form
Now, passing to the limit for , we have
Now, taking into account the representation (31) for the inner integral (28), we deduce that
Here, by performing the integration operation by parts, then using the identities, we have
Equality (32) is written as follows:
Now, in (33) passing to limit (33) for and we obtain
In Equation (34), changing the order of integration, we obtain
where
where is Euler’s beta function is Gauss hypergeometric function [10] (p. 6).
In the proof of Formula (36) in the inner integral change of the integration variable is made, by which the integral is expressed through Euler’s beta function. Then, by performing the differentiation operation, we obtain Formula (36). In the proof of Formula (37), in the inner integral , change of the integration variable is made, by which the integral is expressed through the Gaussian hypergeometric function [10] (p. 5), and after applying the differentiation formula
by performing the differentiation operation, and using the autotransformation formula
we obtain Formula (37). In the proof of Formula (38) in the inner integral change of the integration variable is made, due to this it is expressed through the Gaussian hypergeometric function [10] (p. 8), then apply differentiation formula
and autotransformation Formula (39) and get (38).
Thus, due to (36)–(38) from (35) for , we obtain the formula
Now, let us calculate from (29). Taking into account the representation (31) for inner integral in (29), will be written in the form
In (41), performing the integration operation by parts, we have
Since the function has continuous derivative of the first order in segment , then the difference satisfies Lipschitz’s condition: , where . Therefore
Taking this remark into account, equality (42) can be written as
In the integrand expressions (43), after performing the specified differentiation operations and then changing the order of integration, we obtain
Now, expressions for and from (40) and (44) substituting in (27) we obtain equality (24). The equality (24) is proved.
Proceeding similarly as in the case of identity (24), identity (25) is also proven. Taking into account that the function is continuous in the square , it is not difficult to establish the validity of identity (26) through direct calculation. Lemma 1 is proven. □
Now, by virtue of Lemma 1 (24)–(26) substituting into Equation (23) and with the aim of reducing the limits of integration to the main interval we divide the integration interval into the subintervals and , and the interval into the subintervals and . Then, in the integrals over the interval we perform a change of the integration variable , where and taking into account condition (13), we write Equation (23) in the form
After some transformations, Equation (46) is written as follows:
where ,
Here, , if and , if .
Thus, in the case the solvability of problem is reduced to proving the unique solvability of the integral Equation (46).
Lemma 2.
The function defined by relation (47), is continuous in the square except on the diagonal
, where it has a discontinuity of the first kind.
The Proof of Lemma 2 :
Due to condition (19) (smoothness of the given functions), follows from the form (47) of the definition of the function . Also, due to (19) and (48), it is easy to establish that .
Due to condition (19), i.e., so Equation (46) is an integral equation with a weak singularity [62] (p. 481), with respect to the unknown function the unique solvability of which in the class of functions follows from the uniqueness of the solution to problem . Theorem 2 is proven. □
4.3. Existence of a Solution to Problem for the Case
4.3.1. Derivation of a Singular Integral Equation with a Non-Fredholm Integral Operator Having an Isolated First-Order Singularity at the Point
Now, consider the case In this case in Equation (23) changing to and taking into account identities [7] (pp. 107–108)
we obtain
where
here is regular operator.
Note that Equation (49) is considered in the interval therefore the kernel of Equation (49) has a singular feature only for In order to isolate the singular part of Equation (49) integrals over the interval decomposed into two integrals over the intervals and , then in integrals over the interval replacing , where and using condition (13): . Equation (50) is written as
where
is a known function.
Equation (50) is a non-standard singular integral equation because the kernel of the first integral operator on the right-hand side of (50) contains an isolated first-order singularity at the point and therefore this operator is separated out.
Following Carleman’s idea, considering the right-hand side of Equation (50) as a known function, we write it in the form
where
From (52), due to the conditions of Theorem 2, it is not difficult to establish that the function satisfies the Hölder condition on and . Here denotes the Lebesgue space with the norm .
4.3.2. Regularization of the Singular Integral Equation
Theorem 3.
If satisfies the Hölder condition for and , then the solution of Equation (51) in the class of Hölder functions in which the
function is bounded at the right endpoint and may be unbounded at the left endpoint of the
interval i.e., in the class [10] (p. 43) is expressed by the formula
where
Proof.
Introducing notations Equation (51) is written in the form
To regularize the Tricomi singular integral Equation (54), we apply the Carleman–Vecua method developed by S.G.Mikhlin [23].
Let be an arbitrary point of complex plane In this plane, we introduce the function
Let us denote by the following infinite intervals of the real axis
The function is holomorphic in the entire complex plane except for the points of the set of the real axis and if According to the Sokhotski–Plemel formulas [63], on the interval we have
Here and are the boundary values of the function as the point approaches the point on the real axis from the upper or lower half-plane, respectively.
Using Formulas (55) and (56), Equation (54) can be written in the form
It is easy to verify that the function satisfies the relation
The transformation maps the upper half-plane to the lower half-plane and vice versa. At the same time, the interval is mapped to the infinite intervals in the reverse direction. In (57), replacing with and taking (58) into account, we get
Due to (59) the equality (57) is written as
Let us introduce the following functions
Using the introduced functions (61) and (62), Equations (57) and (60) can be combined into a single equation:
Thus, the problem of finding the solution to the singular integral Equation (54) is reduced to a Riemann problem in the theory of functions of a complex variable: to find a function vanishing at infinity, holomorphic both in the upper and lower half-planes and on the real axis , satisfying condition (63).
We reduce the Riemann problem (63) to a jump problem. To do this, the function is represented in the form of the ratio of boundary values on the axis of a holomorphic function which is bounded at infinity.
Let us solve the following problem: to find a function holomorphic in both the upper and lower half-planes and on the real axis , that is bounded at infinity and satisfies the condition
or
One of the partial solutions to problem (64) has the form
Note that
Equality (65) is written as
In the latter case, by performing the integration operation by parts, we obtain
where
is a holomorphic function in both the upper and lower half-planes and has a finite limit for
From (61), we calculate and
where
where
Therefore, taking into account the expressions for and from (66), we have
where is a holomorphic function in both the upper and lower half-planes. Hence
where
Thus the function can be represented in the form —the factorization of the function [64] (p. 33). Taking into account the last representation, the boundary condition (63) is written as
Thus for the function , we arrive at a jump problem [64] (p. 30) in the theory of analytic functions. One of the particular solutions of Equation (69) has the form
Hence, taking into account definition (62) for the function , we write
In the second integral on the right-hand side of (70), making the change of variable we have
Formula (71) gives one of the particular solutions of Equation (69). Now, let us find the general solution of the corresponding homogeneous Equation (69) (with ).
To do this, consider the homogeneous equation
It follows that the function is holomorphic in the entire complex plane except for the points which can only be poles. By the well-known generalized Liouville theorem on analytic continuation, it follows that is a rational function of the form
Thus, due to (71) and (72), the general solution of the Riemann problem has the form
Hence, by virtue of the Sokhotsky–Plemel Formula (55), we find that
Here, taking into account the equalities
and (67) and (68) equality (73) is written as
Hence, considering that , we have
where . Since the solution is sought in the class of Hölder functions that are bounded at point and may tend to infinity of order less than one, then in (74), it is necessary to set Now taking into account that
from the solution (74) we obtain Formula (53). Theorem 3 is proved. □
4.3.3. Derivation and Analysis of the Wiener–Hopf Integral Equation
Let us continue the investigation of solution (53).
Note that in relation (52) is linear dependent from unknownn function The expression for from (52) substituting in (53), we obtain
where .
By extracting the characteristic part in Equation (75), we transform it into the form
where
is regular operator, and
is known function. Let us calculate inner integral in (76).
The rational factor of the integrand is decomposed into partial fractions
By virtue of the latter decomposition, equality (77) is written as
where
We calculate the improper integrals and .
Let us compute :
In the first and second integrals on the right-hand side of (79), performing a change of variables, respectively, and we get
To both hypergeometric functions on the right-hand side of (80), applying the auto-transformation Formula (39), we get
Applying the Boltz formula [10] (p. 11)
to the first term of (81), we transform (81) into the form
or
Applying equality , it is easy to prove that
Now in (82) passing to limit for taking into account (83), we obtain
In the integrals after making a change of the integration variable, respectively, and and then using the integral representation of the hypergeometric function along with the autotransformation formula, we deduce
Now, expressions for from (84), (85), and (86) substituting in (78) we obtain
Taking into account the equalities , we have
Due to (88) from (87) isolating terms with a multiplier , we have
where
Here the square bracket at the point is equal to zero, and so is regular kernel.
Due to (89), the Equation (76) is written in the form
The last equation is written as
where
Due to the equality is regular operator.
Here taking into account equalities , we have
Due to equality (91), the Equation (90) is written in the form
In the last equation, focusing on the characteristic part of the equation, we have
where
is regular operator.
In Equation (92) making replacement taking into account the identity , Equation (92) is written as
Introducing notations
we write Equation (93) in the form
where Function and its derivative are continuous and have exponential order of decay at infinity, and therefore [64] (p. 12).
Equation (94) is a Wiener–Hopf integral equation [64] (p. 55), this equation, by means of the Fourier transform, similarly to the well-known characteristic singular integral equation with a Cauchy kernel is reduced to a Riemann boundary value problem and thus is solved in quadratures.
If the singularity of the Cauchy kernel lies in the discontinuity at then the singularity of the kernel of the convolution-type integral equation is caused by the unboundedness of the integration interval. This kernel, unlike a regular one, does not decrease as one moves to infinity along the straight line where
Fredholm’s theorems for convolution-type integral equations holds only in the special case when the index of such equations is zero. The index of Equation (94) will be the index of the expression
taken with the opposite sign: [65] (p. 56), where
Now let us compute the index of the expression:
Let
where
Then
and for sufficiently large
Hence, we get
Therefore
i.e., changing the argument along the real axis, expressed in full turns is equal to zero [64] (p. 28), from this and from the uniqueness of the solution to problem , it follows that Equation (94) is uniquely solvable, and therefore so is problem Thus, the following Theorem is proved.
Theorem 4.
Problem under the conditions
and inequality (95) is uniquely solvable.
Let us note that the set of values of numerical parameters of problem satisfying inequality (95) is non-empty. Indeed, since then for values of the parameter sufficiently close to , the value of becomes sufficiently large, and so inequality (95) is satisfied for such values of the parameters.
5. Conclusions
- (1)
- The paper investigates issues of existence and uniqueness of the solution to a problem with local missing Tricomi condition on one boundary characteristic and Frankl-type condition on the degeneration segment for a certain class of mixed elliptic-hyperbolic type equations with various orders of degeneration and singular coefficients.
- (2)
- The considered problem differs from known problems in that, on one part of the boundary characteristic, the values of the sought function and Frankl-type condition are specified at different ends of the cut along the degeneration segment of the equation. On the segment of the degeneration line, a general conjugation condition is specified, and in the elliptic region of the equation, the Bitsadze–Samarskii condition is imposed, which pointwise connects the boundary of the ellipticity region with the lines of degeneration. At the same time, a portion of the hyperbolic region’s boundary is freed from boundary conditions.
- (3)
- The uniqueness of the solution to the formulated problem is proved using an analog of A.V. Bitsadze’s extremum principle for mixed-type equations with singular coefficients.
- (4)
- The proof of the existence of a solution to the problem, depending on the numerical values of the ratio of the orders of degeneracy and the numerical parameters in the lower-order terms of the equations, is reduced either to solving Fredholm integral equation with a polar singularity or to non-standard singular Tricomi-type integral equation with a non-Fredholm operator, whose kernel contains an isolated singularity of the first order at only one point. Using the Carleman–Vekua regularization method, the resulting singular integral equation with a non-Fredholm operator is reduced to a Wiener–Hopf integral equation. It is proven that the index of the Wiener–Hopf equation is zero. Therefore, the Wiener–Hopf equation is reduced to a second-kind Fredholm integral equation, the unique solvability of which follows from the uniqueness of the solution to problem .
- (5)
- An algorithm has been developed for solving non-standard singular Tricomi-type integral equations with a non-Fredholm operator whose kernel contains an isolated first-order singularity.
- (6)
- It has been established that the well-posedness of the formulated problem, posed on a part of the characteristic and involving Frankl-type conditions on the degeneration line, essentially depends on the relationship between the coefficients of the given conditions at the junction point of the local condition and the Frankl-type condition, which lies on the degeneration line of the equation.
In conclusion, it should be noted that the developed methods for studying non-standard singular integral equations can be applied to the investigation of a broader class of partial differential equations with singular coefficients, including for other values of the parameter in Equation (1).
In conclusion, we note the works [65,66,67,68,69,70] are closely related to the topics considered in this paper and were published in recent years.
