2.3.6. f .x; y/ D 2xy and fy .x; y/ D 2x are both continuous at all .x; y/. Hence, Theorem 2.3.1

problem has a unique solution on some open interval containing x0, while if y0 D 1, then the initial
value problem has at least one solution (possibly not unique on any open interval containing x0 ).

2.3.12. f .x; y/ D .x C y/1=2 and fy .x; y/ D
2.3.14. To apply Theorem 2.3.1, rewrite the given initial value problem as (A) y 0 D f .x; y/; y.x0 / D y0 ,
where f .x; y/ D p.x/y C q.x/ and fy .x; y/ D p.x/. If p and f are continuous on some open
interval .a; b/ containing x0 , then f and fy are continuous on some open rectangle containing .x0 ; y0 /,
so Theorem 2.3.1 implies that (A) has a unique solution on some open interval containing x0. The
conclusion of Theorem 2.1.2 is more specific: the solution of (A) exists and is unique on .a; b/. For
example, in the extreme case where .a; b/ D . 1; 1/, Theorem 2.3.1 still implies only existence and
uniqueness on some open interval containing x0 , while Theorem 2.1.2 implies that the solution exists and
is unique on . 1; 1/.

5.1.24. Suppose that y 0 on .a; b/. Then y 0 0 and y 00 0 on .a; b/, so y is a solution of (A)
y 00 C p.x/y 0 C q.x/y D 0; y.x0 / D 0; y 0 .x0 / D 0 on .a; b/. Since Theorem 5.1.1 implies that (A) has
only one solution on .a; b/, the conclusion follows.
5.1.26. If f1 ; 2 g is a fundamental set of solutions of (A) on .a; b/, then every solution y of (A) on .a; b/
is a linear combination of f1 ; 2 g; that is, y D c1 1 C c2 2 D c1.y1 C y2 / C c2 . y1 C y2 / D
.c1 C c2 /y1 C .c1 C c2 /y2 , which shows that every solution of (A) on .a; b/ can be written as a
linear combination of fy1 ; y2 g. Therefore,fy1 ; y2 g is a fundamental set of solutions of (A) on .a; b/.

W .x0 / D y1 .x0 /y20 .x0 / y10 .x0 /y2 .x0 / 0. Now let y be the solution of y 00 C p.x/y 0 C q.x/y D

5.1.36. Theorem 5.1.6 implies that that there are constants c1 and c2 such that (B) y D c1y1 C c2 y2 on

Since Theorem 5.1.6 implies that y1 .x0 /y20 .x0 / y10 .x0 /y2 .x0 / 0, the argument preceding Theorem 5.1.4 implies that c1 and c2 are given uniquely by

5.1.38. The general solution of y 00 D 0 is y D c1 C c2 x, so y 0 D c2 . Imposing the stated initial

conditions on y1 D c1 C c2 x yields c1 C c2 x0 D 1 and c2 D 0; therefore c1 D 1, so y1 D 1. Imposing
the stated initial conditions on y2 D c1 C c2x yields c1 C c2x0 D 0 and c2 D 1; therefore c1 D x0 , so
y2 D x x0. The solution of the general initial value problem is y D k0 C k1 .x x0 /.

(c) We have shown that y.0/ D y 0 .0/ D 0 for any choice of c1 and c2 in (C). Therefore,the given
initial value problem has a solution if and only if k0 D k1 D 0, in which case every function of the form
(C) is a solution.
(d) If x0 > 0, then c1 and c2 in (C) are uniquely determined by k0 and k1 , but c3 can be chosen

x0 < 0, then c1 and c3 in (C) are uniquely determined by k0 and k1 , but c2 can be chosen arbitrarily.
Therefore,(B) has a unique solution on . 1; 0/, but infinitely many solutions on . 1; 1/.
5.1.44. (a) If y1 D x 3 , then y10 D 3x 2 and y100 D 6x, so x 2 y100 6xy10 C 12y1 D x 2.6x/ 6x.3x 2/ C

8.4.30. Let T be an arbitrary positive number. Since limm!1 tm D 1, only finitely many members of
ftm g are in 0; T . Since fm is continuous on tm ; 1/ for each m, f is piecewise continuous on 0; T .
If tM t < tM C1 , then u.t tm / D 1 if m M , while u.t tm / D 0 if m > M . Therefore,

Therefore,(C) of Exercise 8.3.31 holds if s > s0 C if is any positive number. This implies that it holds

if 0 t t1 , y is continuous on 0; 1/. From (c), y 0 is continuous on 0; t1/ and .t1 ; 1/, so we need
only show that y 0 is continuous at t1 . For this it suffices to
that h0 .t1 / D 0. Since h.t1 / D 0 if

9.2.40. (a) Since y D Q1 .D/P1 .D/y C Q2 .D/P2 .D/y and P1 .D/y D P2 .D/y D 0, it follows that
y D 0.
(b) Suppose that (A) a1 u1 C C ar ur C b1v1 C C bs vs D 0, where a1 ; : : : ; ar and b1 ; : : : ; bs are
constants. Denote u D a1 u1 C C ar ur and v D b1 v1 C C bs vs . Then (B) P1 .D/u D 0 and (C)
P2 .D/v D 0. Since uCv D 0, P2 .D/.uCv/ D 0. Therefore,0 D P2 .D/.uCv/ D P2 .D/uCP2 .D/v.
Now (C) implies that P2 .D/u D 0. This, (B), and (a) imply that u D a1 u1 C C ar ur D 0, so
a1 D D ar D 0, since u1 ; : : : ; ur are linearly independent. Now (A) reduces to b1 v1 C Cbs vs D 0,
so b1 D c D bs D 0, since v1 ; : : : ; vs are linearly independent. Therefore,u1 ; : : : ; ur ; v1; : : : ; vr are
linearly independent.
(c) It suffices to show that fy1 ; y2 ; : : : ; yn g is linearly independent. Suppose that c1 y1 C Ccnyn D 0.
We may assume that y1 ; : : : ; yr are linearly independent solutions of p1 .D/y D 0 and yr C1 ; : : : ; yn are
solutions of P2 .D/ D p2 .D/ pk .D/y D 0. Since p1 .r / and P2 .r / have no common factors, (b)
implies that (A) c1 y1 C C cr yr D 0 and (B) cr C1 yr C1 C C cn yn D 0. Now (A) implies that
c1 D D cr D 0, since y1 ; : : : ; yr are linearly independent. If k D 2, then yr C1 ; : : : ; yn are linearly
independent, so cr C1 D D cn D 0, and the proof is complete. If k > 2 repeat this argument, starting
from (B), with p1 replaced by p2 , and P2 replaced by P3 D p3 pn .

D .cos i sin /jnj D .cos. / C i sin. //jnj . Replacing by and n by

(f) From (e), 1=n 0 ; : : : ; 1=nn 1 are all zeros of n . Since they are distinct numbers, n has

10.4.28. (a) If y.t0 / D 0, then y is the solution of the initial value problem y0 D Ay; y.t0 / D 0. Since
y 0 is a solution of this problem, Theorem 10.2.1 implies the conclusion.
(b) It is given that y01 .t/ D Ay1 .t/ for all t. Replacing t by t shows that y01.t / D Ay1 .t / D
Ay2 .t/ for all t. Since y02.t/ D y01 .t / by the chain rule, this implies that y02 .t/ D Ay2 .t/ for all t.
(c) If z.t/ D y1 .t /, then z.t2 / D y1 .t1 / D y2 .t2 /; therefore z and y2 are both solutions of the initial
value problem y0 D Ay; y.t2 / D k, where k D y2 .t2 /.

(i) if D ab, then 1 D 0 and P .t/ D P0 , Q.t/ D Q0 for all t > 0; (ii) if < ab, then

limt !1 P .t/ D limt !1 Q.t/ D 0 (monotonically). Now suppose Q0 P0 , so that the trajectory
cannot intersect L1 , and assume for the moment that (A) makes sense for all t > 0; that is, even if
one or the other of P and Q is negative. Since 2 > 0 it follows that either limt !1 P .t/ D 1 or
limt !1 Q.t/ D 1 (or both), and the trajectory is asymptotically parallel to L2 . Therefore,the trajectory
must cross into the third quadrant (so P .T / D 0 and Q.T / > 0 for some finite T ) if Q0 > P0 , or into
the fourth quadrant (so Q.T / D 0 and P .T / > 0 for some finite T ) if Q0 < P0 .

Differentiating this twice yields c3 x D 0, so c3 D 0 since x 0. Therefore,(A) reduces to (B) c1x C

the derivation of the method of variation of parameters in Section 9.4, Y u0 D f as defined in the solution
of (a). This and (E) imply the conclusion.
(d) Since Y u0 D f with f as defined in the solution of (a), u1 ; u2 ; : : : ; un satisfy the conditions required
in the derivation of the method of variation of parameters in Section 9.4; hence, yp D c1y1 C c2 y2 C

THE HEAT EQUATION
12.1.2. X.x/T .t/ satisfies ut D a2 uxx if X 00 C X D 0 and (A) T 0 D a2 T for the same value
of . The product also satisfies the boundary conditions u.0; t/ D ux .L; t/ D 0; t > 0, if and only
if X.0/ D X 0 .L/ D 0. Since we are interested in nontrivial solutions, X must be a nontrivial solution
of (B) X 00 C X D 0; X.0/ D 0; X 0 .L/ D 0. From Theorem 11.1.4, n D .2n 1/2 2=4L2 is an
.2n 1/ x
eigenvalue of (B) with associated eigenfunction Xn D sin

12.2.48. Since f is continuous on 0; L and f 0 .L/ D 0, Theorem 11.3.4 implies that SMf .x/ D f .x/,
0 x L. From Exercise 11.3.58, SMf is the odd periodic extension (with period 2L) of the function
f .x/;
0 x L;
r .x/ D
which is continuous on 0; 2L. Since r .0/ D r .2L/ D f .0/ D
f .2L x/; L < x 2L;

f 0 .x/;
0 < x < L;
0, SMf is continuous on . 1; 1/. Moreover, r 0 .x/ D
r 0 .0/ D
0
f .2L x/; L < x < 2L; C
fC0 .0/, r 0 .2L/ D fC0 .0/, and, since f 0 .L/ D 0, r 0 .L/ D 0. Hence, r is differentiable on 0; 2L.
Since r .0/ D r .2L/ D f .0/ D 0, Theorem 12.2.3(a) with h D r , p D SMf , and L replaced by 2L
implies that SMf is differentiable
on 00. 1; 1/. Similarly, SMg is differentiable on . 1; 1/.
f .x/;
0 < x < L;
00
00
Now we note that r .x/ D
r 00 .L/ D f 00 .L/, and rC
.0/ D r 00 .2L/ D
f 00 .2L x/; L < x < 2L;
0

fC00 .0/ D 0. Since SMf
is the even periodic extension of r 0 , Theorem 12.2.3(b) with h D r 0 , q D SMf
,
0
and L replaced by 2L implies that SMf is differentiable on . 1; 1/. Now follow the argument used to
complete the proof of Theorem 12.2.4.

with equality if and only if D 0. Since ./2 C ./2 > 0, the inequality must hold in at least one of
(C) and (D). Now (A) implies that > 0.
