    How Do You Solve the 1D Heat Equation with Trigonometric Initial Conditions?

    problem u_t=u_xx, x is in [0,1], t>0 with u(0,t)=u(1,t)=0, t>0 u(x,0)=sin(pi*x)-sin(3*pi*x), x is in (0,1) i think its solution is of the form u(x,t)=sigma(n=1 to infinity){a_n*sin(n*pi*x)*exp(-n^2*pi^2*t) where a_n=2*integral(0 to 1){ (sin(pi*x)-sin(3*pi*x)) * sin(n*pi*x) }...
