For every test function , the distributional weak solution satisfies
There is no initial-time boundary term because the test functions are on the whole time line. In divergence notation the flux in the seven coordinates is , whose divergence is . For a general -dimensional divergence the introductory flux must be vector-valued; the scalar codomain printed for is dimensionally inconsistent when . The transport identity above has the correct flux dimensions.
