Description
Summary:Using the method of characteristics and the Banach fixed point theorem (for the Bielecki metric), in the paper it is established the existence and uniqueness of a global (continuous) solution of the mixed problem in the rectangle $\Pi=\{(x,t)\colon 0<x<l<\infty,\ 0<t<T<\infty\}$ for the first order hyperbolic system of semi-linear equations of the form $$ \dfrac{\partial u}{\partial t}+\Lambda(x,t) \dfrac{\partial u}{\partial x}=f(x,t,u,v,w),  \dfrac{\partial v}{\partial x}=g(x,t,u,v,w), \dfrac{\partial w}{\partial t }=h(x,t,u,v,w), $$ for a singular with orthogonal (degenerate) and non-orthogonal to the coordinate axes characte\-ristics and with nonlinear boundary conditions, where $\Lambda(x,t)=\mathrm{diag}(\lambda_1(x,t),\ldots,\lambda_k(x,t)),$ $u=(u_1,\ldots,u_k),$ $v=(v_1,\ldots,v_m),$ $w=(w_1,\ldots,w_n),$ $f=(f_1,\ldots,f_k),$ $g=(g_1,\ldots,g_m),$ $h=(h_1,\ldots,h_n)$ and besides $\textrm{sign } \lambda_i(0,t)=\mathrm{const}\neq 0$, $\textrm{sign } \lambda_i(l,t)=\mathrm{const}\neq 0 $ $\text{for all} \ t \in [0, T] $ and  for all $i \in \{1,\ldots,k\}$.  The presence of non-orthogonal and degenerate characteristics of the hyperbolic system for physical reasons indicates that part of the oscillatory disturbances in the medium propagates with a finite speed, and part with an unlimited one. Such a singularity (degeneracy of characteristics) of the hyperbolic system allows mathematical interpretation of many physical processes, or act as auxiliary equations in the analysis of multidimensional problems.
