7.3.3: Boundary Value Problems: Mixed Boundary Value Problem

( \newcommand{\kernel}{\mathrm{null}\,}\)

The Mixed boundary value problem (third boundary value problem) is to find a solution uC2(Ω)C1(¯Ω) of
u=0  in Ωun+hu=Φ  on Ω,


where Φ and h are given and continuous on Ω.e Φ and h are given and continuous on Ω.

Proposition 7.6. Assume Ω is bounded and sufficiently regular, then a solution to the mixed problem is uniquely determined in the class uC2(¯Ω) provided h(x)0 on Ω and h(x)>0 for at least one point xΩ.

Proof. Exercise. Hint: Multiply the differential equation w=0 by w and integrate the result over Ω.
