MATH 534HEditor : Byeongho Ban1.1.4Show that the difference of two solutions of an inhomogeneous linear equation Lu g with the same g is a solution ofthe homogeneous equation Lu 0.Proof. .Suppose that w and v are given solution of the inhomogeneous equation so that Lw g and Lv g. Then observe thatL(w v) Lw Lv g g 0.Thus, w v is a solution of Lu 0. Since w and v were arbitrary, the difference of any two solution of the inhomogeneousequation is a solution of the homogeneous equation. 1.1.10Show that the solutions of the differential equation u000 3u00 4u 0 form a vector space. Find a basis of it.Proof. .Let S be the set of solution of the equation. And let w, v S be given. Then observe that, for any constant c,(w v)000 3(w v)00 4(w v) (w000 3w00 4w) (v 000 3v 00 4v) 0,(cv)000 3(cv)00 4(cv) c(v 000 3v 00 4v) 0.Thus, S is closed under addition and scalar multiplication. Since the set of all functions is a vector space and S is asubset of the vector space which is closed under addition and scalar multiplication, S is a vector space.Now note that the characteristic equation for the ODE is x3 3x2 4 (x 1)(x 2)2 0. Note that, clearly,{e x , e2x , xe2x } is linearly independent. Therefore, the basis of the solution is {e x , e2x , xe2x }. 1.1.11Verify that u(x, y) f (x)g(y) is a solution of the PDE uuxy ux uy for all pairs of (differentiable) functions f and g ofone variable.Proof. .Let two one variable differentiable functions f (x) and g(y) be given. And let u(x, y) f (x)g(y). Then observe thatuuxy f g(f g)xy (f g)(fx gy ) (fx g)(f gy ) ux uy . 1.1.12Verify by direct substitution thatun (x, y) sin(nx) sinh(ny)is a solution of uxx uyy 0 for every n 0.Proof. .Let n 0 be given and let un w. Observe thatwxx wyy n2 sin(nx) sinh(ny) n2 sin(nx) sinh(ny) ( n2 n2 )w 0since (sin(nx))xx ( n cos(nx))x n2 sin(nx) and (sinh(nx))xx (n sinh(nx))x n2 sinh(nx). Thus, w un is thesolution of the equation for any n 0. Page 4

MATH 534HEditor : Byeongho BanDue date: February 14thByeongHo BanProof. 1.2.1Observe that the characteristic line of the PDE,2ut 3ux 0is 3t 2x 0. Thus, the solution is the form of u(t, x) f (3t 2x) for some differntiable one variable function f . Notethat, by the auxiliary condition, u(0, x) sin(x) ,we havesin(x) u(0, x) f ( 2x).Let w 2x, thenf (w) sin w 2.Therefore, our solution is u(t, x) f (3t 2x) sin3t 2x2 .Clearly, 3t 2x3t 2x 3 sin 02ut 3ux 3 sin22 so it solves the PDE and u(0, x) sin 2x sin ( x) sin x.2 Proof. 1.2.2Let v uy , then we have an ODEdv vx 3v.dxThen, by separation of variable, for any one variable differentiable function f (y), we haveuy (x, y) v(x, y) f (y)e 3x .Then, letting F (y) be a primitive function of f (F 0 f ), we have ,u(x, y) F (y)e 3x .Observe that3uy uxy 3(F (y)e 3x )y (F (y)e 3x )xy 3f (y)e 3x ( 3)f (y)e 3x 0.Thus, our u solves the P DE.Thus, our solution to the PDE is u(x, y) F (y)e 3x for any differntiable one variable function F . Page 5

MATH 534HEditor : Byeongho BanProof. 1.2.3Note that, the PDE is the directional derivative of u in the direction of (1 x2 , 1). Thus, by the ODE1dy y arctan(x) Cfor any constant C. dx1 x2And y arctan(x) C is the characteristic curve for the PDE. Then, our solution to the PDE isu(x, y) f (y arctan(x))for any differentiable function f . Clearly, our u solves the PDE.As for the graph of characteristic curves, note the below. Proof. 1.2.4Note(7) u(x, y) f (e x y)(4) ux yuy 0.Observe that(f (e x y))x y(f (e x y))y ( e x yf 0 ) y(e x f 0 ) 0.Thus, (7) solves (4). Proof. 1.2.5Note that the PDE means the directional derivative of u in the direction of (x, y) is zero. Thus, we have an ODE and itssolution(by the separation of the variable),dyyy01 ln y ln x A y Cx for any constant C and A.dxxyxThus, xy C is the characteristic curves. Thus, our solution to the PDE isyu(x, y) f ( ) for any differentible function, f.xObserve thatyyxux yuy f 0 f 0 0.xxThus, our solution solves the PDE. Page 6

MATH 534HEditor : Byeongho BanProof. 1.2.6 Observe that the given PDE means that the directional derivative of u in the direction of ( 1 x2 , 1) is zero. Thus, bythe ODE with the solution1dy y arcsin(x) C for any constant C,dx1 x2we have the characteristic curvesy arcsin(x) C for any constant C.Thus, the solution to the PDE isu(x, y) f (y arcsin(x)) for a differentiable function f.Then by the auxiliary condition, u(0, y) y, observe thaty u(0, y) f (y arcsin(0)) f (y).Therefore, our solution to the PDE isu(x, y) y arcsin(x).Observe thatp1 x2 ux uy 1 1 0.Thus, our u solves the PDE. Additional Problem 1Solve the transport equation 5ux 6uy 0 together with the auxiliary condition that u(x, 0) 4x3Proof. Note that the PDE is presented as where v (5, 6). D vu 0Then observe that the characteristic line is(x, y) · (6, 5) 6x 5y const.Thus, our PDE solution isu(x, y) f (6x 5y)for some differentiable fucntion f.Note that, by the auxiliary condition,f (6x) u(x, 0) 4x3 .Then observe that, by using w 6x,f (w) 4 w 36 w3.54Therefore, our solution to the PDE isu(x, y) f (6x 5y) (6x 5y)3.54Observe that 5ux 6uy 518(6x 5y)254and thatu(x, 0) 615(6x 5y)254 0(6x)3 4x3 .54 Page 7

Let(ζ 2x 3yη 3x 2y.And observe that.ux u u ζ u η 2uζ 3uη x ζ x η xuy u u ζ u η 3uζ 2uη . y ζ y η yThen observe that1 2ux 3uy 2(2uζ 3uη ) 3(3uζ 2uη ) 13uζThen our particular solution is11 uζ up ζ f (η)for some differentiable function f .1313By changing the variable back, we have1up (x, y) (2x 3y) f ( 3x 2y).13And let’s find the general solution for the PDE by solving2ux 3uy 0.Through the same method as above, we get13uζ 0 uζ 0.Thus, u h(η) for some differentiable function h. Then, by changing the variable back, our general solution would beug (x, y) h( 3x 2y).Then our solution isu(x, y) ug (x, y) up (x, y) where F f h.Observe that 2ux 3uy 2Thus, our u solves the PDE.2 3F 0131(2x 3y) F ( 3x 2y),13 33 2F 013 1.

Note thatux 1 x 2ye ex 2y4&uy 12ex 2y 2ex 2y .4Now, observe that 1 1 x 2y 1 x 2ye ex 2y 2ex 2y 2ex 2y e ex 2y ex 2y .444Thus, the given u(x, y) solves the given PDE.ux uy u Additional Problem 4-(b)Next use the additional problem 3 to write the general form of the solution toux uy u ex 2y.Proof. Note that the solution for the given PDE is the summation of particular solution and general solution. And notethat the solution we found in the Additional problem 3 is the general solution. And the solution given in AdditionalProblem 4-(a) is the particular solution. Therefore, our solution to the PDE would be 11 x 2yu(x, y) G(x y)e 2 (x y) e ex 2yfor some differentiable function G.4And clearly from previous steps, it solve our PDE. Additional Problem 4-(c)Find the solution toux uy u ex 2ythat also satisfies u(x, 0) 1.Page 9

MATH 534HEditor : Byeongho BanProof. We only need to find specific function G from the general form in 4-(b).From the general form, observe that11 u(x, 0) G(x)e 2 x .11Thus, only possibility is when G(x) e 2 x . Therefore, we have G(x y) e 2 (x y) then our specific solution would be 111 x 2y1 x 2yu(x, y) e 2 (x y) e 2 (x y) e ex 2y e y e ex 2y .44And observe that1u(x, 0) e0 (ex ex ) 1.4Thus, it is correct one.

MATH 534HEditor : Byeongho BanProof. 1.4.1Let u(x, t) x2 2t. And note thatut (2t x2 )t 2 (2t x2 )xx uxx .Thus, u solves the PDE. Also, observe thatu(x, 0) x2 2 · 0 x2 .Thus, u also satisfies the initial condition. Therefore, the u is the function we are finding. Page 12

Specify what method you are using and explain step by step yourwork. Show all your work.Problem 8 of Section 1.2Solve aux buy cu 0.Proof. Let’s use variation method. Let(ζ ax byη bx ay.Then observe thatux u u ζ u η auζ buη x ζ x η xuy u ζ u η u buζ auη . y ζ y η yBy plugging them into the PDE, we haveaux buy cu a(auζ buη ) b(buζ auη ) cu (a2 b2 )uζ cu 0.Then observe thatuζcc 2 ln u 2ζ f (η)ua b2a b2By letting G(η) ef (η) , we have c ζu(ζ, η) G(η)e a2 b2 .By changing the variable back, our solution is(a2 b2 )uζ cu u(x, y) G( bx ay)ec a2 b2 (ax by)for some differentiable function f .Observe thatc a2 b2 (ax by)aux buy cu abG0 e baG0 ec a2 b2 (ax by) a ba2ac c (ax by)Ge a2 b22 bbc c (ax by) c (ax by) cGe a2 b2Ge a2 b2a2 b2 0.Thus, our u solves the PDE. Additional Problem 1-(b)Choose a 2, b 5, and c 29 and find the solution u(x, y) to part (a) that also satisfies u(x, 0) e 3x .Proof. From part (a), we know that the solution for 2ux 5uy 29u 0 isu(x, y) G( 5x 2y)e 2229(2x 5y) 52 G( 5x 2y)e (2x 5y) ,where G(x) ef (x) for some differntiable function f . Then observe that, by given condition,e 3x u(x, 0) G( 5x)e 2x .Then we have, with α 5x,αe x G( 5x) G(α) e 5 .Therefore,u(x, y) G( 5x 2y)e (2x 5y) e 5x 2y523e (2x 5y) e 3x 5 y .Then note that2ux 5uy 29u 6u 23u 29u 0.Thus, our solution is23u(x, y) e 3x 5 y . Page 13

MATH 534HEditor : Byeongho BanAdditional Problem 1-(c)Check that 61 (ex y e3x y ) is a particular solution to the inhomogeneous equation2ux 5uy 29u (6ex y 5e3x y ).Proof. Observe that 1112ux 5y 29u 2 ex y 3e3x y 5 ex y e3x y 29 ex y e3x y666 2 5 29 x y5 29 3x y ee 1 6 6666 6ex y 5e3x y .Thus, 16 (ex y e3x y ) solves the inhomogeneous equation so it is a particular solution. Additional Problem 1-(d)Use part (a) a 2, b 5, and c 29 together with part (c) to find the general solution to the inhomogeneous equation2ux 5uy 29u (6ex y 5e3x y ).Proof. LetL 2 5 29. x yThen letuh (x, y) G( 5x 2y)e (2x 5y)for any differentiable function G andui (x, y) 1 x y(e e3x y ).6Then observe thatL(uh ui ) Luh Lui 0 (6ex y 5e3x y )since it is clear that L is linear.Therefore, for any differentiable function G, our general solution to the PDE is1G( 5x 2y)e (2x 5y) (ex y e3x y ).6 Proof. 1.5.1The solution to the PDE is not unique depending on the value of L. Consider the function, when L nπ for any n Z,u(x) eix e ix .Observe thatd2 u u i2 eix ( i)2 e ix eix e ix eix e ix eix e ix 0dx2and thatu(0) ei0 e i0 1 1 0 and u(L) u(nπ) enπi e nπi cos(nπ) cos ( nπ) 0.Thus, u solves the ODE.Note that the general solution for the ODE isψ(x) Aeix Be ix .And observe thatψ(0) 0 Ae0 Be0 0 A Bso thatψ(L) 0 ψ(0) A(eiL e iL ) 0 cos(2L) i sin(2L) e2iL 1 2L 2πk L kπ k Z.Thus, in order for any nonzero function to solve the given ODE, L should be integer multiple of π. Therefore, the solutionof the ODE is unique if and only if L is not an integer multiple of π. Page 14

MATH 534HEditor : Byeongho BanProof. 1.5.4(a)Let u be the solution to the given Neumann problem. Then, for arbitrary constant C, observe that (u C) (u) (C) f 0 f in Dand u C(u C) 0 0 on D. n n nThus, as long as C is constant, we can add C to the solution of the problem to make another different solution. Therefore,the solution to the PDE is not unique so this problem is ill-posed.(b)Suppose that the problem has solution, u. Then, by the divergence theorem, observe thatZZZZZZf (x, y, z)dxdydz udxdydzDZ ZD ( u) · n dS DZZ udS n D 0.Therefore,ZZZf (x, y, z)dxdydz 0Dis a necessary condition for the Neumann problem to have a solution.(c)Note that, for heat flow or diffusion,f (x, y, x) k u tfor some constant k 0.The physical interpretation from (a) is that the diffusion or heat flow only depends on the difference of concentration ortemperature level between two regions. Thus, when we increase a certain amount of heat or concentration equally, evenif the increased level is very high, the diffusion and flow would be same as before the increasing.Note from (b) thatZZZkD u dxdydz k t tZZZudxdydz k M 0 tD uwhere M is the total mass over all D. Note that this hold when n 0 on D which means there is no lose of mass in D.Thus, physical interpretation from (b) is that, when there is no mass going out from D, the total mass is preserved overtime.

MATH 534HEditor : Byeongho BanProof. 1.5.5Note that0 ux yuy (1, y) · (ux , uy ) (1, y) · u.Then solve the ODEyy0dy y 1 ln y x C y Aex A ye xdx1yfor some constant C and A eC . Thus, the characteristic curve isA ye x .Then the solution to the PDE isu(x, y) f (ye x ) for any differentiable function f.(a)Suppose that, when φ(x) x, the solution exists.Then f (0) u(x, 0) φ(x) x. Note f (0) should be constant and x is not constant. Thus, it is a contradiction.Therefore, there does not exist such f .(b)Suppose that φ(x) 1. Then observe thatf (0) u(x, 0) φ(x) 1.Note that ga (x) e , for any constant a, satisfies g(0) 1 which says for any constant a, f can be ga . Therefore, forinfinitely many a, u(x, y) ga (ye x ) is a solution. So there are infinitely many solution to the problem. axProblem 6(modified)Solve the equation ux 2xy 2 uy 0 and find a solution that satisfies the auxiliary condition u(0, y) y.Proof. Note thatux 2xy 2 uy (1, 2xy 2 ) · (ux , uy ) (1, 2xy 2 ) · u 0.Thus, the tangent of characteristic curve isdy2xy 2 2xy 2 .dx1Then observe that1y0 2x x2 C2yywhere C is some constant. Then our characteristic curve is1x2 C.yThus, our solution is 12u(x, y) f x for some differentiable function f .yBy the given auxiliary condition, we get 1.y u(0, y) fyThen we have1f (x) .xTherefore, our final solution is 11y2u(x, y) f x 2 1 2.yyx 1x yAdditionally, note that, if y were 0, then our PDE isux 0which implies that u(x, y) g(y) for some differentiable function g. Then, by the auxiliary condition,g(y) u(0, y) y 0.Thus, u(x, y) y 0 which is consistent with our result. Page 16

MATH 534HEditor : Byeongho BanProof. 1.6.1(a)Note that we can reduce the PDE asuxx uxy 2uy uyy 3uyx 4u 0 uxx 4uxy uyy 2uy 4u 0.Then observe thata11 a22 a212 1 · 1 ( 2)2 1 4 3 0.Thus, the equation is Hyperbolic.(b)Observe thata11 a22 a212 9 · 1 (3)2 9 9 0.Thus, the equation is Parabolic.
