1. Adem’s Project
(a) Solve the equation in the Fourier transform domain (ie find a formula
for yb(w)).
(b) Prove that yb is integrable and conclude that y is continuous and bounded.
2. Maha’s Project
y0 = 0
yn+1 is the unique bounded solution of Lyn+1 = g − λ(yn − µ ∗ yn )
(a) Find the Green’s function G ∈ C(R) for the differential operator Ly =
−y 00 + y. (This function G serves as the inverse of L in the sense that the
unique bounded solution of Ly = f is y = G ∗ f for all f ∈ Cc (R).)
(b) Write an octave program which implements the fixed point interation:
yn+1 = G ∗ (g − λ(yn − µ ∗ yn ))
(c) Devise a test case to assess how well the iteration approximates the
exact solution.
