Hello,

I'm trying to find either an analytical or a semi-analytical method for solving the following P-B Eq.

with C and A being two constants. The equation is to be solved within a rectangle with constant boundary conditions.

If anyone has a clue, I'll be grateful.

Have a good evening.

Have you tried using a Fourier transform? The exponential in your equation makes that method seem promising.
 
Not sure that you're right because the exponential term contains the function itself rather than the independent variables x or y.
 
In that case, the only other method I know would be to write the right hand side as a power series centered at the origin of the domain and truncate the series to some low order, like first or second, and solve the resulting PDE.
 
Thread 'Direction Fields and Isoclines'
I sketched the isoclines for $$ m=-1,0,1,2 $$. Since both $$ \frac{dy}{dx} $$ and $$ D_{y} \frac{dy}{dx} $$ are continuous on the square region R defined by $$ -4\leq x \leq 4, -4 \leq y \leq 4 $$ the existence and uniqueness theorem guarantees that if we pick a point in the interior that lies on an isocline there will be a unique differentiable function (solution) passing through that point. I understand that a solution exists but I unsure how to actually sketch it. For example, consider a...
