A mixed problem in the theory of partial differential equations is an auxiliary data problem wherein conditions are assigned on two distinct surfaces having an intersection of lower dimension. Such problems have usually been formulated in connection with hyperbolic differential equations, with initial and boundary conditions prescribed. In this paper a study is made of the conditions appropriate to a system of R linear partial differential equations of first order, in R dependent and N independent variables.
