Transform only the time variable. Two integrations by parts give , when the ordinary transform boundary terms vanish; the same derivative rule holds for tempered distributions. Spatial derivatives and the fixed spatial delta commute with the transform. Thus
or
The spatial Dirichlet boundary conditions transform to .
