Connection Between Solutions of the Schwarz Nonlinear Differential Equation And Those of the Plane Problems Filtration

abstract:
In the present paper, using linearly independent solutions of the Fuchs class linear differential equation which contains a term with the first order derivative of the unknown function, we propose effective methods for solving both the Schwarz nonlinear equation, whose right-hand side is a doubled invariant of the Fuchs class linear differential equation, and the plane problems of filtration with partially unknown boundaries. The modulus of the difference of the characteristic numbers of the Fuchs class linear differential equation for every singular point is equal to the corresponding (divided by $\pi$) angle at the vertex of a circular polygon. For the first time it is shown that the coefficients at the poles of second order of the doubled invariant of the Fuchs class linear differential equation and those on the right-hand side of the Schwarz equation coincide completely.

Relying on the property mentioned above, we suggest simpler methods of solving the problems of the theory of stationary motion of incompressible liquid in a porous medium with partially unknown boundaries than those described by us earlier for the solution of the same problems.
