This paper deals with an application of complex analysis to second order equations of mixed type. We mainly discuss the discontinuous Poincaré boundary value problem for a second order linear equation of mixed (elliptic-hyperbolic) type, i.e. the generalized Lavrent’ev-Bitsadze equation with weak conditions, using the methods of complex analysis. We first give a representation of solutions for the above boundary value problem, and then give solvability conditions via the Fredholm theorem for integral equations. In [1], [2], the Dirichlet problem (Tricomi problem) for the mixed equation of second order u x x + s g n y u y y = 0 was investigated. In [3], the Tricomi problem for the generalized Lavrent’ev-Bitsadze equation u x x + s g n y u y y + A u x + B u y + C u = 0 , i.e. u ξ η + a u ξ + b u η + c u = 0 with the conditions: a ≥ 0, a ξ + a b - c 0 , c ≥ 0 was discussed in the hyperbolic domain. In the present paper, we remove the above assumption of [3] and obtain a solvability result for the discontinuous Poincaré problem, which includes the corresponding results in [1]-[3] as special cases.
