(b) Let g be a fundamental solution for L. Use the method of image charges for finding the Green’s function
for the domain Ω = { x ∈ R2 | x2 < 0}.
Hint: Use the fundamental solution g and add a term such that Dirichlet boundary conditions are fulfilled.
for Ω = ( a, b). Give a formula for the solution of this problem with a Green’s function G ( x, y). You do not have to
find a formula for the Green’s function.
Prove that Z
u (x) = G (x, y) f (y) dy
Ω
gives a solution of the boundary-value problem
2, for x ≤ 0,
u(0, x ) =
0, for x > 0.
What problem is described by the differential equation? What is the name of the equation? Why is u not a classical
solution?
