..though I figure it's sort of an analysis type problem.
∫wvdx=0 (int from 0 to 1) for all v in V. w is continuous on [0,1]. What it means to be in V: v in V satisfies being continuous on [0,1], v(0)=v(1)=0, and derivatives of v are piecewise continuous .
Problem is:
Show that w(x)=0 for x in [0,1].
I have spent hours with this. The book I'm looking at describes a couple problems:
for u in V, u is a solution to -u''=f(x), u is also a solution to (u',v')=(f,v) and also a solution to
1/2(u',u')-(f,u) less than or equal to 1/2(v',v')-(f,v).
I have tried in many combinations to use this information, and this is the only given info in the chapter.
Help.
