I know about the domain of dependence of 2nd order hyperbolic equations. It is defined using characteristics and initial/boundary data. But how do we define domain of dependence for 1st order hyperbolic equation? There will be only one characteristic.
Thanks |

Well, a first order PDE is classified by definition only hyperbolic. As example for a 2D case, being a and b real functions of (x1,x2). a*df/dx1+b*df/dx2=0 -> df/dx1+(b/a)*df/dx2=0 so that you can make at system with the total differential df = dx1*df/dx1+dx2*df/dx2 =dx1*(df/dx1+dx2/dx1*df/dx2) and see that on the curves of the plane (x1,x2) dx2/dx1=b/a you get df=0. A classical example is x1=t, x2=x, a=1, b=u=const. The curve dx/dt=u is a straight line in the (x,t) plane. That means the function at a point Xp and at a time T is equal to the value of the initial data f(Xp-u*T,0). Thus, you can trace the domain of dependence at the time t=0. |
