Boundary Value Problems for Mixed Type Equations and Applications
  In this paper we outline a general method for finding well-posed boundary value problems for linear equations of mixed elliptic and hyperbolic type, which extends previous techniques of Berezanskii, Didenko, and Friedrichs. This method is then used to study a particular class of fully nonlinear mixed type equations which arise in applications to differential geometry.
