The Wronskian
Jim Lambers MAT 285 Spring Semester 2012-13 Lecture 16 Notes These notes correspond to Section 3.2 in the text. The Wronskian Now that we know how to solve a linear second-order homogeneous ODE y00 + p(t)y0 + q(t)y = 0 in certain cases, we establish some theory about general equations of this form. First, we introduce some notation. We define a second-order linear differential operator L by L[y] = y00 + p(t)y0 + q(t)y: Then, a initial value problem with a second-order homogeneous linear ODE can be stated as 0 L[y] = 0; y(t0) = y0; y (t0) = z0: We state a result concerning existence and uniqueness of solutions to such ODE, analogous to the Existence-Uniqueness Theorem for first-order ODE. Theorem (Existence-Uniqueness) The initial value problem 00 0 0 L[y] = y + p(t)y + q(t)y = g(t); y(t0) = y0; y (t0) = z0 has a unique solution on an open interval I containing the point t0 if p, q and g are continuous on I. The solution is twice differentiable on I. Now, suppose that we have obtained two solutions y1 and y2 of the equation L[y] = 0. Then 00 0 00 0 y1 + p(t)y1 + q(t)y1 = 0; y2 + p(t)y2 + q(t)y2 = 0: Let y = c1y1 + c2y2, where c1 and c2 are constants. Then L[y] = L[c1y1 + c2y2] 00 0 = (c1y1 + c2y2) + p(t)(c1y1 + c2y2) + q(t)(c1y1 + c2y2) 00 00 0 0 = c1y1 + c2y2 + c1p(t)y1 + c2p(t)y2 + c1q(t)y1 + c2q(t)y2 00 0 00 0 = c1(y1 + p(t)y1 + q(t)y1) + c2(y2 + p(t)y2 + q(t)y2) = 0: We have just established the following theorem. -
Chapter 2. Steady States and Boundary Value Problems

Chapter 2 Steady States and Boundary Value Problems We will first consider ordinary differential equations (ODEs) that are posed on some in- terval a < x < b, together with some boundary conditions at each end of the interval. In the next chapter we will extend this to more than one space dimension and will study elliptic partial differential equations (ODEs) that are posed in some region of the plane or Q5 three-dimensional space and are solved subject to some boundary conditions specifying the solution and/or its derivatives around the boundary of the region. The problems considered in these two chapters are generally steady-state problems in which the solution varies only with the spatial coordinates but not with time. (But see Section 2.16 for a case where Œa; b is a time interval rather than an interval in space.) Steady-state problems are often associated with some time-dependent problem that describes the dynamic behavior, and the 2-point boundary value problem (BVP) or elliptic equation results from considering the special case where the solution is steady in time, and hence the time-derivative terms are equal to zero, simplifying the equations. 2.1 The heat equation As a specific example, consider the flow of heat in a rod made out of some heat-conducting material, subject to some external heat source along its length and some boundary condi- tions at each end. -
Solving the Boundary Value Problems for Differential Equations with Fractional Derivatives by the Method of Separation of Variables
mathematics Article Solving the Boundary Value Problems for Differential Equations with Fractional Derivatives by the Method of Separation of Variables Temirkhan Aleroev National Research Moscow State University of Civil Engineering (NRU MGSU), Yaroslavskoe Shosse, 26, 129337 Moscow, Russia; [email protected] Received: 16 September 2020; Accepted: 22 October 2020; Published: 29 October 2020 Abstract: This paper is devoted to solving boundary value problems for differential equations with fractional derivatives by the Fourier method. The necessary information is given (in particular, theorems on the completeness of the eigenfunctions and associated functions, multiplicity of eigenvalues, and questions of the localization of root functions and eigenvalues are discussed) from the spectral theory of non-self-adjoint operators generated by differential equations with fractional derivatives and boundary conditions of the Sturm–Liouville type, obtained by the author during implementation of the method of separation of variables (Fourier). Solutions of boundary value problems for a fractional diffusion equation and wave equation with a fractional derivative are presented with respect to a spatial variable. Keywords: eigenvalue; eigenfunction; function of Mittag–Leffler; fractional derivative; Fourier method; method of separation of variables In memoriam of my Father Sultan and my son Bibulat 1. Introduction Let j(x) L (0, 1). Then the function 2 1 x a d− 1 a 1 a j(x) (x t) − j(t) dt L1(0, 1) dx− ≡ G(a) − 2 Z0 is known as a fractional integral of order a > 0 beginning at x = 0 [1]. Here G(a) is the Euler gamma-function. As is known (see [1]), the function y(x) L (0, 1) is called the fractional derivative 2 1 of the function j(x) L (0, 1) of order a > 0 beginning at x = 0, if 2 1 a d− j(x) = a y(x), dx− which is written da y(x) = j(x). -

The material presented here corresponds to a 24 hours course taught in Toulouse in 2012 and 2013. We introduce all tools required to give a complete proof of the Weyl law, mainly the semiclassical pseudo-differential calculus, and then of course prove it! The price to pay is that we avoid presenting many classical concepts or results which are not necessary for our purpose (such as Borel summations, principal symbols, invariance by diffeomorphism or the G˚ardinginequality). -
Linear Differential Operators
3 Linear Differential Operators Differential equations seem to be well suited as models for systems. Thus an understanding of differential equations is at least as important as an understanding of matrix equations. In Section 1.5 we inverted matrices and solved matrix equations. In this chapter we explore the analogous inversion and solution process for linear differential equations. Because of the presence of boundary conditions, the process of inverting a differential operator is somewhat more complex than the analogous matrix inversion. The notation ordinarily used for the study of differential equations is designed for easy handling of boundary conditions rather than for understanding of differential operators. As a consequence, the concept of the inverse of a differential operator is not widely understood among engineers. The approach we use in this chapter is one that draws a strong analogy between linear differential equations and matrix equations, thereby placing both these types of models in the same conceptual frame- work. The key concept is the Green’s function. It plays the same role for a linear differential equation as does the inverse matrix for a matrix equa- tion. There are both practical and theoretical reasons for examining the process of inverting differential operators. The inverse (or integral form) of a differential equation displays explicitly the input-output relationship of the system. Furthermore, integral operators are computationally and theoretically less troublesome than differential operators; for example, differentiation emphasizes data errors, whereas integration averages them. Consequently, the theoretical justification for applying many of the com- putational procedures of later chapters to differential systems is based on the inverse (or integral) description of the system. -
First Integrals of Differential Operators from SL(2, R) Symmetries

Firstly, we provide for n = 2 an explicit expression for two non-constant first integrals through algebraic operations involving the symmetry generators of sl(2, R), and without any kind of integration. Moreover, although there are cases when the two first integrals are functionally independent, it is proved that a second functionally independent first integral arises by a single quadrature. This result is extended for n > 2, provided that a solvable structure for an integrable distribution generated by the differential operator associated to the equation and one of the prolonged symmetry generators of sl(2, R) is known. Several examples illustrate the procedures. Keywords: differential operator; first integral; solvable structure; integrable distribution 1. Introduction The study of nth-order ordinary differential equations admitting the unimodular Lie group SL(2, R) is a non-trivial problem due to the nonsolvability of the underlying symmetry algebra sl(2, R). -
1 Function Spaces, Linear Operators, and Green's Functions
1 1 Function Spaces, Linear Operators, and Green’s Functions 1.1 Function Spaces Consider the set of all complex-valued functions of the real variable x, denoted by f (x), g(x), ..., and defined on the interval (a, b). We shall restrict ourselves to those functions which are square-integrable.Definetheinner product of any two of the latter functions by b ∗ (f , g) ≡ f (x) g (x) dx, (1.1.1) a in which f ∗(x) is the complex conjugate of f (x). The following properties of the inner product follow from definition (1.1.1): (f , g)∗ = (g, f ), ( f , g + h) = ( f , g) + ( f , h), (1.1.2) ( f , αg) = α( f , g), (αf , g) = α∗( f , g), with α a complex scalar. While the inner product of any two functions is in general a complex number, the inner product of a function with itself is a real number and is nonnegative. This prompts us to define the norm of a function by 1 b 2 ∗ f ≡ ( f , f ) = f (x) f (x)dx , (1.1.3) a provided that f is square-integrable , i.e., f < ∞. Equation (1.1.3) constitutes a proper definition for a norm since it satisfies the following conditions: scalar = | | · (i) αf α f , for all comlex α, multiplication (ii) positivity f > 0, for all f = 0, = = f 0, if and only if f 0, triangular (iii) f + g ≤ f + g . inequality (1.1.4) Applied Mathematical Methods in Theoretical Physics, Second Edition.

Sturm Liouville Theory
1 Sturm-Liouville System 1.1 Sturm-Liouville Dierential Equation Denition 1. A second ordered dierential equation of the form d d − p(x) y + q(x)y = λω(x)y; x 2 [a; b] (1) dx dx with p; q and ! specied such that p(x) > 0 and !(x) > 0 for x 2 (a; b), is called a Sturm- Liouville(SL) dierential equation. Note that SL dierential equation is essentially an eigenvalue problem since λ is not specied. While solving SL equation, both λ and y must be determined. Example 2. The Schrodinger equation 2 − ~ + V (x) = E 2m on an interval [a; b] is a SL dierential equation. 1.2 Boundary Conditions Boundary conditions for a solution y of a dierential equation on interval [a; b] are classied as follows: Mixed Boundary Conditions Boundary conditions of the form 0 cay(a) + day (a) = α 0 cby(b) + dby (b) = β (2) where, ca; da; cb; db; α and β are constants, are called mixed Dirichlet-Neumann boundary conditions. When both α = β = 0 the boundary conditions are said to be homogeneous. Special cases are Dirichlet BC (da = db = 0) and Neumann BC (ca = cb = 0) Periodic Boundary Conditions Boundary conditions of the form y(a) = y(b) y0(a) = y0(b) (3) are called periodic boundary conditions. Example 3. Some examples are 1. Stretched vibrating string clamped at two ends: Dirichlet BC 2. Electrostatic potential on the surface of a volume: Dirichlet BC 3. Electrostatic eld on the surface of a volume: Neumann BC 4. A heat-conducting rod with two ends in heat baths: Dirichlet BC 1 1.3 Sturm-Liouville System (Problem) Denition 4. -
Step Functions, Delta Functions, and the Variation of Parameters Formula
STEP FUNCTIONS, DELTA FUNCTIONS, AND THE VARIATION OF PARAMETERS FORMULA STEPHEN SCHECTER 1. The unit step function and piecewise continuous functions The Heaviside unit step function u(t) is given by 0 if t< 0, u(t)= (1 if t> 0. The function u(t) is not defined at t = 0. Often we will not worry about the value of a function at a point where it is discontinuous, since often it doesn’t matter. u(t) u(t−a) 1−u(t−b) u(t−a)−u(t−b) 1 1 1 1 a b a b Figure 1.1. Heaviside unit step function. The function u(t) turns on at t = 0. The function u(t − a) is just u(t) shifted, or dragged, so that it turns on at t = a. The function 1 − u(t − b) turns off at t = b. The function u(t − a) − u(t − b), with a < b, turns on a t = a and turns off at t = b. We can use the unit step function to crop and shift functions. Multiplying f(t) by u(t−a) crops f(t) so that it turns on at t = a: 0 if t < a, u(t − a)f(t)= (f(t) if t > a. Multiplying f(t) by u(t − a) − u(t − b), with a < b, crops f(t) so that it turns on at t = a and turns off at t = b: 0 if t < a, (u(t − a) − u(t − b))f(t)= f(t) if a<t<b, 0 if t > b. -
A Boundary Value Problem for a System of Ordinary Linear Differential Equations of the First Order*
A BOUNDARY VALUE PROBLEM FOR A SYSTEM OF ORDINARY LINEAR DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS OF THE FIRST ORDER* BY GILBERT AMES BLISS The boundary value problem to be considered in this paper is that of finding solutions of the system of differential equations and boundary con- ditions ~ = ¿ [Aia(x) + X£i£t(*)]ya(z), ¿ [Miaya(a) + Niaya(b)] = 0 (t - 1,2, • • • , »). a-l Such systems have been studied by a number of writers whose papers are cited in a list at the close of this memoir. The further details of references incompletely given in the footnotes or text of the following pages will be found there in full. In 1909 Bounitzky defined for the first time a boundary value problem adjoint to the one described above, and discussed its relationships with the original problem. He constructed the Green's matrices for the two problems, and secured expansion theorems by considering the system of linear integral equations, each in one unknown function, whose kernels are the elements of the Green's matrix. In 1918 Hildebrandt, following the methods of E. H. Moore's general analysis, formulated a very general boundary value problem containing the one above as a special case, and established a number of fundamental theorems. In 1921 W. A. Hurwitz studied the more special system du , dv r . — = [a(x) + \]v(x), — = - [b(x) + \]u(x), dx dx (2) aau(0) + ß0v(0) = 0, axu(l) + ßxv(l) = 0 and its expansion theorems, by the method of asymptotic expansions, and in 1922 Camp extended his results to a case where the boundary conditions have a less special form. -
12 Fourier Method for the Heat Equation
12 Fourier method for the heat equation Now I am well prepared to work through some simple problems for a one dimensional heat equation. Example 12.1. Assume that I need to solve the heat equation 2 ut = α uxx; 0 < x < 1; t > 0; (12.1) with the homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions u(t; 0) = u(t; 1) = 0; t > 0 (12.2) and with the initial condition u(0; x) = g(x); 0 ≤ x ≤ 1: (12.3) Let me start again with the ansatz u(t; x) = T (t)X(x): The equation implies T 0X = α2TX00; where the primes denote the derivatives with respect to the corresponding variables. Separating the variables implies that T 0 X00 = = −λ, α2T X where the minus sign I chose for notational reasons. Therefore, I now have two ODE, moreover the second ODE X00 + λX = 0 is supplemented with the boundary conditions X(0) = X(1) = 0, which follows from (12.2). Two lectures ago I analyzed a similar situation with periodic boundary conditions, and I considered all possible complex values of the separation constant. Here I will consider only real values of λ, a rigorous (and elementary!) general proof that they must be real will be given later. I start with the case λ = 0. This means X00 = 0 =) X(x) = Ax + B, where A and B are two real constants. The boundary conditions imply that A = B = 0 and hence for λ = 0 my boundary value problem has no nontrivial solution. Now assume that λ < 0. The general solution to my ODE in this case is p p X(x) = Ae −λx + Be− −λx; and the boundary conditions yield p p A + B = 0; Ae −λ + Be− −λ = 0; or p B(e2 −λ − 1) = 0; Math 483/683: Partial Differential Equations by Artem Novozhilov e-mail: [email protected].
