To find a harmonic function in a bounded simply-connected domain 
which, on the boundary 
of the domain, satisfies the condition
 |
where 
, 
, 
, and 
are real-valued functions given on 
, 
is the arc parameter and 
is the normal to 
. H. Poincaré (1910) arrived at this problem while working on the mathematical theory of fluid flow and gave an (incomplete) solution to the problem in case 
, 
and the contour 
and the functions 
and 
are analytic.
