Spectral problem with spectral parameter in the boundary condition in the theory of the radial heat equation (Q946104): Difference between revisions

At application of the Fourier method of separation of variables to the radial heat equation for the cylinder \(u_t=a^2(u_{rr}+\frac{1}{r}u_r)\) with initial condition \(u(r,0)=g(r),0\leq r\leq R,\) and the boundary condition \(-ku_r| _{r-R}=cu_t| _{r=R}\) the authors get the equation \[ U''(r)+\tfrac{1}{r}U'(r)+\lambda U(r)=0 \tag{1} \] with spectral parameter in boundary condition \[ U'(r)| _{r=R}=d\lambda U(r)| _{r=R},\; d=\frac{Ca^2}{k}.\tag{2} \] The authors determine the system of eigenfunctions for (1), (2) which is a Riesz basis in the space \(L_2(0,R)\)
