For U3, there shouldn't be a log; and for U2, it should be (1/2*pi)* log[(x^2+y^2)^(1/2)], right?

thanks professor, now it makes more sense  :)

Misc Math / Mean-value theorem
« on: November 24, 2012, 06:23:08 PM »
I do not quite understand step b and c(see attached) in the proof of Mean-value theorem. Did you use Green's identity or some other identity when dragging out terms from the integral?

Yes I got X0(t)T0(t)=cos(1/2*x)*exp(-1/2*t). But one solutions posted last year have either 0 or pi/2...

ut−kuxx=0 for x∈(0,π)
with the boundary conditions ux(0,t)=0 and u(Ï€,t)=0 and the initial condition u(x,0)=x.

Part d) Write the solution in the form of a series.

If we use separation of variables, U=X*T, I found that T0 is t dependent. Then A0*T0 cannot not just a constant or zeor(A0 is for X).
Are there any mistakes regarding that part in both solutions poster last year?

Same question as Ziting, should there be four cases regarding  beta and +/- omega relationship? The sign will change when we get rid of the absolute sign and take the derivative.

Misc Math / Lec 23 Possion formula clarification
« on: November 10, 2012, 05:33:03 PM »
Attached picture is a screen shot of online notes lecture 23. I was wondering if there is an addition r in front of sin(n*theta) in (12). Also, is there missing a^(-n) in calculating An and Cn?

why in problem 1 we are looking for 'solutions' instead of a single solution?

For part c, sinx/x is an even function and its integral is Si(x). Then should we simply get positive infinity?

for part a, should we add a condition that alpha and beta are real? Or they have to be real since we are assuming all eigenvalues are real?

Build on DW's solution,part c).  For -2t < x < 2t, x+3t> 0, Ï• can be solved the same as in part a). x+2t<0, ψ is the same as x< -2t, which is a constant C, since Ï•+ψ.  The u(x,t)= 1/4exp(-x-2t)+C for -2t < x < 2t. Will this be a correct answer to finish up the question?

will alpha: non-negative and beta:non-positive for part b) be a more accurate answer?

I think there is still problem 2/ sqrt(pi) instead of sqrt(2/pi), is this true?

 I noticed the given error function(Erf) in the problem set sheet is different with what's given in WolframAlpha. Which one should I use? Also, are we expected to write our final answers in form of Erf?

It looks like I should use the result from part 3 for part 4. However if so, how should I use the initial values?
