Final Exam / problem 4
« on: December 20, 2012, 01:33:07 PM »
Let $u$ solve the initial value problem for the wave equation in one dimension
\begin{equation*}
\left\{\begin{aligned}
& u_{tt}-  u_{xx}= 0 ,\qquad&& ~{\mbox{in}} ~\mathbb{R} \times (0,\infty),\\[3pt]
&u (0,x) = f(x), \qquad&& ~{\mbox{on}}~ \mathbb{R} \times \{t=0\} ,\\[3pt]
&u_t(0,x)= g(x),  \qquad&& ~{\mbox{on}}~ \mathbb{R} \times \{t=0\} .
\end{aligned}\right.
\end{equation*}
Suppose $f(x)=g(x)=0$ for all $|x|>1000.$ The  kinetic energy is
$$
k(t)= \frac{1}{2}\int_{-\infty}^{+\infty} u_t^2 (t,x) dx
$$
and the potential energy is
$$
p(t)= \frac{1}{2}\int_{-\infty}^{+\infty} u_x^2 (t,x) dx.
$$
 Prove
  • $k(t)+ p(t)$ is constant with $t$ (so does not change as $t$ changes),
  • $k(t)=p(t)$ for all large enough times $t$.

Suppose $\Delta u = 0$ and satisfies $|u| < 1000$ everywhere on $\mathbb{R}^2$.

Prove that $u$ is a constant function. In other words, show that there exists a constant $C$ so that $u (x) = C$ everywhere on $\mathbb{R}^2$.

Hint: Mean Value Theorem

Consider a $2\pi$-periodic function $f$ with full Fourier series
$$
\sum_{n \in \mathbb{Z}} c_n e^{i n x}.
$$
 Suppose that the Fourier coefficients decay fast enough to satisfy
$$
\sum_{n \in \mathbb{Z}} |n| \cdot |c_n| < 17.
$$
Prove that $f'$ is bounded.

Solve the first-order equation $2 u_t + 3 u_x =0$ with the auxiliary condition $u = \sin x$ when $t=0$.

includes solution to part (d) and what I think is the graph to part (e).

I think that for part (3) we are supposed to take
$
\mathbf{U}=\ w \nabla u
$

then you take (permutting)

$
\mathbf{U}=\ u \nabla w
$

Do you want the solution in the complex form or real form of the Fourier series?

My solution. Please check there might be mistakes. Sorry for quality of print and hand writing.

Djirar, I posted my solution 10 seconds after you  :)

I was scribbling my solutions as fast as I could  :)

Edit: I forgot to write down the axes to part a.  The vertical is x-axis and the horizontal is y-axis. I hope I didn't forget this on the test  :(

Do you mean the $t$ axis?

Yes $t$ not $y$. Thank you.

I think Qitan Cui is correct. In my haste I must have messed up the integration of the bonus part.

I solved the question in the same way as Aida Razi did. Of course for part b, C(x) > 0  for all x.
