Showing solution satisfies PDE (chain rule help)












0












$begingroup$



We have $$u(x, t) = g(x-at, 0) + int_0^t f(x+a(s-t), s)ds$$ and want to show it satisfies the PDE $$partial_t u + a cdot Du = f$$




The solution given goes as follows $$partial_t u + acdot Du = - a cdot nabla g(x-at) +f(x,t) + int_0^t nabla f(x+(s-t)a, s) cdot (-a) ds \ + a cdot nabla g(x-at) + acdot int_0^t nabla f(x+(s-t)a, s) ds$$ $$= f(x, t)$$ as required



However, I have no idea how these terms have appeared. In particular, I'm not sure why we have a grad appearing for $g$ and the $f(x, t)$ seems to come from nowhere...



Any insight is appreciated.

          The first three terms arise from the chain rule to calculate $u_t$. First, you dot-multiply the gradient of $g$ by the derivative of the function inside $g$ with respect to $t$, which is the vector $-a$, next you have to take the $t$-derivative of an integral that contains $t$ both in the limit of integration and in the integrand. For that you have to combine the fundamental theorem, setting $s=t$ in the integrand, and a "convective" term including the $t$ derivative of the integrand $-a$. The last two terms arise in a similar way, but now to take the $x$ - gradient of the integral with fixed limits you just take it on the integrand.



          It is just too long to write down all details...

            Hint: Use Leibniz's integral rule to show that



            begin{align}
            frac{partial}{partial t}int_0^t f(x+a(s-t),s) ds &= f(x+a(s-t),s)Bigvert_{s=t} - int_0^t frac{partial}{partial t}f(x+a(s-t),s) ds \
            &= f(x,t) - int_0^t (-a)f'(x+a(s-t),s) ds
            end{align}



            The gradient here just means the first derivative of a single variable, i.e.



            $$ frac{partial}{partial t} g(x-at) = -ag'(x-at) $$



            Try it your self with the remaining derivatives.

              Consider the function :
              $$u(x, t) = g(X, Y) + int_0^t f(Psi, Phi)ds$$
              where $$begin{cases}
              X=x-at & frac{partial X}{partial x}=1 quad & frac{partial X}{partial t}=-a\
              Y=0 \
              Psi=x+a(s-t) & frac{partial Psi}{partial x}=1quad & frac{partialPsi}{partial t}=-a\
              Phi=s end{cases}$$



              $frac{partial g}{partial x}=frac{partial g}{partial X}frac{partial X}{partial x}=frac{partial g}{partial X}$



              $frac{partial g}{partial t}=frac{partial g}{partial X}frac{partial X}{partial t}=-afrac{partial g}{partial X}$



              $frac{partial f}{partial x}=frac{partial f}{partial Psi}frac{partial Psi}{partial x}=frac{partial f}{partial Psi}$



              $frac{partial f}{partial t}=frac{partial f}{partial Psi}frac{partial Psi}{partial t}=-afrac{partial f}{partial Psi}$



              $frac{partial }{partial x}int_0^t f(Psi, Phi)ds =int_0^t frac{partial f}{partial x}ds =int_0^t frac{partial f}{partial psi}ds$



              $frac{partial }{partial t}int_0^t f(Psi,Phi)ds = left(f(Psi,Phi)right)_{s=t}+int_0^t frac{partial f}{partial t}ds = f(x,t)-aint_0^t frac{partial f}{partial Psi}ds $



              Because $f(Psi,Phi)=f(x,t)$ for $s=t$ :



              $Psi=x+a(s-t)=x+a(t-t)=xquad$ and $quadPhi=s=t$ .



              $$frac{partial u }{partial x}=frac{partial g }{partial x}+frac{partial }{partial x}int_0^t f(Psi, Phi)ds= frac{partial g}{partial X}+int_0^t frac{partial f}{partial Psi}ds$$



              $$frac{partial u }{partial t}=frac{partial g }{partial t}+frac{partial }{partial t}int_0^t f(Psi, Phi)ds=-afrac{partial g}{partial X} +f(x,t)-aint_0^t frac{partial f}{partial Psi}ds $$



              $$frac{partial u }{partial t}+afrac{partial u }{partial x}=
              left(-afrac{partial g}{partial X} +f(x,t)-aint_0^t frac{partial f}{partial Psi}ds right) +
              aleft( frac{partial g}{partial X}+int_0^t frac{partial f}{partial Psi}dsright)$$

              After simplification :
              $quadfrac{partial u }{partial t}+afrac{partial u }{partial x}=f(x,t)$



              Thus the function $quad u(x, t) = g(x-at, 0) + int_0^t f(x+a(s-t), s)dsquad$
              satisfies the PDE $quad partial_t u + a: partial_x u = f$ .

                            The gradient here just means the first derivative of a single variable, i.e.



                            $$ frac{partial}{partial t} g(x-at) = -ag'(x-at) $$



                            Try it your self with the remaining derivatives.
