The first initial boundary value problem for a compound type equation in a three-dimensional multiply connected region

The method of boundary integral equations is used for solving the first initial boundary value problem for a compound type equation in a three-dimensional multiply connected region. The problem is reduced to a uniquely solvable integral equation. The solution of the problem is obtained in the form of dynamic potentials whose density satisfies this integral equation. Thus the existence theorem is proved. Moreover, the uniqueness of the solution is also studied. All the results are valid for both interior and exterior regions provided that the corresponding conditions at infinity are taken into account.
