Abstract

The major difficulty in using the Wiener-Hopf technique is the problem of constructing a suitable factorization. We consider here a method based on contour integration which leads by natural extensions to the use of Cauchy integrals in the solution of mixed boundary-value problems.

  4. We could in fact use a Fourier inversion contour which is not a straight line parallel to the real axis, thus achieving a generalization of the Wiener-Hopf technique by using the Plemelj formula.
