Abstract:
This article concerns the oblique derivative problems for
second-order quasilinear degenerate equations of mixed type with
several characteristic boundaries, which include the Tricomi problem
as a special case. First we formulate the problem
and obtain estimates of its solutions, then we show the existence
of solutions by the successive iterations and the Leray-Schauder theorem.
We use a complex analytic method: elliptic complex functions
are used in the elliptic domain, and hyperbolic complex functions
in the hyperbolic domain, such that second-order equations of mixed
type with degenerate curve are reduced to the first order mixed complex
equations with singular coefficients.
An application of the complex analytic method, solves
