SynopsisThe Cauchy problem and the Dirichlet-Cauchy type problem of some second-order systems of partial differential equations of composite type of two unknown functions are investigated. Such systems possess some of the characteristics not only of elliptic but also of hyperbolic systems in the same domain. Representations of the solutions are found for the upper half plane. To this end, the composite systems are reduced to the canonical form by means of successive applications of three kinds of linear transformations. Function theoretic methods are used to obtain representation formulae. Furthermore, some composite systems of 2m-unknown function are also considered.
