Airy half-line solution with prescribed boundary derivative

For $u_t+u_{xxx}=0$ on $x>0$, define $V(x,p)={\int }_0^{\infty }{R}_p(x-y)u_0(y)dy$ and let $G$ be the time Laplace transform of $u_x(0,t)$. The transformed solution with spatial decay isOnly one characteristic root has negative real part, so one scalar boundary derivative fixes the remaining homogeneous mode. The Bromwich inversion formula supplies an integral representation involving only the initial and boundary data. For general linear differential equations on a half-line, the number and form of the necessary boundary data depend on the decaying spatial roots; Fokas and Wang study the corresponding boundary maps for linear dispersive equations.
