In recent years interest in the mixed boundary value problems of mathematical physics has increased appreciably because of various applications. The mixed boundary value problems for simply-connected regions have been investigated widely and it can reasonably be hoped that within a short time the theory will reach a satisfactory stage. It appears, however, that very few problems for multiply-connected domains have been solved. Recently Srivastav [2] has considered the problem of rinding an axisymmetric potential function for a half space with a cylindrical cavity subject to mixed type boundary conditions. In a subsequent paper [1], Srivastav extends the analysis to the asymmetric problem and formulates the problem in terms of dual integral equations involving Bessel functions of the first and second kinds whose solution leads to the solution of the potential problem. The latter paper, however, involves heavy manipulations and complicated contour integrals.
