Cauchy Definition and 381 Threads

I have this cauchy problem U_t(x,t)= c_0[tanhx]u_x(x,t)=0 U(x,0)= u_0(x) I managed to prove that it has at most one solution my question is why would it be redundant to have a boundary condition at x=0

Hello. How do I know when to use Cauchy integral formula. Why do we use the formula in this question? As you can see in my attempt, I got stuck. What is f(z), z, z​0 here?

Using the fact that the Natural Nos are complete .then prove that every Cauchy sequence in Natural Nos converges in N and the converse. I do not even know if we can have a Cauchy sequence in Natural Nos. What would be the appropriate metric to use in our Cauchy sequence??

Hello everyone, I have recently bumped into the Kramers Kronig Relations while reviewing some of my Eletromagnetism notes, and as you may know those relations are written in terms of the Cauchy Principal Value (CPV) of certain integrals. Well, I've never been very familiar with with the...

We let C be the set of Cauchy sequences in \mathbb{Q} and define a relation \sim on C by (x_i) \sim (y_i) if and only if \lim_{n\to \infty}|x_n - y_n| = 0. Show that \sim is an equivalence relation on C. We were given a hint to use subsequences, but I don't think they are really necessary...

The cauchy principal value formula is: But why ε→0⁺ in both terms? The correct wouldn't be ε→0⁻ in 1st term and ε→0⁺ in 2nd term? Like: \lim_{\varepsilon \to 0^-}\int_{a}^{c-\varepsilon}f(x)dx + \lim_{\varepsilon \to 0^+}\int_{c+\varepsilon}^{b}f(x)dx ?

Hello, I don't get why using the fact that ∫dz/z = 2*pi*i accros the circle This integral gives: 1/3∫(1/(z-2)-1/(z-1/2))dz = 1/3(-2*pi*i) across the circle Thanks !
