摘要
We propose a new method to solve the initial-boundary value problem for hyperbolic-dissipative partial differential equations (PDEs) based on the spirit of LY algorithm [T.-P. Liu and S.-H. Yu, Dirichlet-Neumann kernel for hyperbolic-dissipative system in half-space, Bull. Inst. Math. Acad. Sin. 7 (2012) 477-543]. The new method can handle more general domains than that of LYs'. We convert the evolutionary PDEs into the elliptic PDEs by the Laplace transformation. Using the Laplace transformation of the fundamental solutions of the evolutionary PDEs and the image method, we can construct Green's functions for the corresponding elliptic PDEs. Finally, we obtain Green's functions for the evolutionary PDEs by inverting the Laplace transformation. As a consequence, we establish Green's functions for some basic PDEs such as the heat equation, the wave equation and the damped wave equation, in a half space and a quarter plane with various boundary conditions. On the other hand, the structure of hyperbolic-dissipative PDEs means its fundamental solution is non-symestric and hence the image method does not work. We utilize the idea of Laplace wave train introduced by Liu and Yu in [Navier-Stokes equations in gas dynamics: Green's function, singularity and well-posedness, Comm. Pure Appl. Math. 75(2) (2022) 223-348] to generalize the image method. Combining this with the notions of Rayleigh surface wave operators introduced in [S. J. Deng, W. K. Wang and S.-H. Yu, Green's functions of wave equations in ℝ+n × ℝ +, Arch. Ration. Mech. Anal. 216 (2015) 881-903], we are able to obtain the complete representations of Green's functions for the convection-diffusion equation and the drifted wave equation in a half space with various boundary conditions.
