in this paper, we investigate the goursat problem in the class c21(d)cn0 (d  p) c00 (d q)for a third order pseudoparabolic equation. some results are given concerning the existence and uniquenessfor the solution of the suggested problem.

n this paper, we apply picard’s iteration method followed by adomian decomposition method to solve a nonlinear singular cauchy problem of euler- poisson- darboux equation. the solution of the problem is much simplified and shorter to arriving at the solution as compared to the technique applied by carroll and showalter (1976)in the solution of singular cauchy problem.

this paper is devoted to the proof of the unique solvability ofthe inverse problems for second-order differential operators withregular singularities. it is shown that the potential functioncan be determined from spectral data, also we prove a uniquenesstheorem in the inverse problem.
