In this paper we consider the unique solvability of initial-boundary value problems of semi-linear wave equations with space-time dependent coefficients and special mixed non-homogeneous boundary values which form the so-called boundary-like antiperiodic condition. The procedure in this paper is the combination of the Galerkin method and a contraction.
Keywords: semi-linear wave equation, Antiperiodic, contraction, solvability, Galerkin method, mixed non-homogenenous boundary values, initial-boundary value problem, uniqueness..
