Apply integration by parts with and . Since and ,The original PDF specifies this integral; the local OCR replaces the entire question by unrelated text.
Use the Maclaurin series and . Multiplication givesThe same terms follow from the two sine harmonics in the Fourier series found above.
Let be the enclosed region with piecewise smooth closed boundary , oriented by its outward unit normal . For a continuously differentiable vector field on a neighbourhood of , the divergence theorem statesThe outward flux integral equals the volume integral of the divergence.
The product-to-sum formula gives the finite Fourier seriesThus the only nonzero Fourier coefficients are .
The chain rule gives and . The partial differential equation becomesFor this to hold for every twice differentiable , the coefficient must vanish:For an affine alone any would work, but the requirement is for arbitrary .
The coefficient matrix has determinant , so it is an invertible matrix. Its homogeneous linear system therefore has only the zero solution:One can also subtract the first equation from the second to get , then subtract the first from the third to get , giving and finally . Thus there are no nonzero solutions.
The equation is not separable, because cannot be written as a product of a function of and a function of on an open region. For example, the ratio depends on for distinct fixed , whereas a separated product would give a constant ratio.
It is not homogeneous in the sense of a homogeneous first-order differential equation: the right-hand side is not a function of alone. It is also not a homogeneous linear differential equation, since moving the term to the left leaves a nonzero forcing.
It is linear, since it has the standard linear ordinary differential equation formThus the classifications are (a) no, (b) no, (c) yes.
