    Study Notes

    Integral Equations and Differential Equations

    • The analog to differential equations in integral equations is the integral equation, which is an equation that involves an unknown function and its definite integrals.

    General Form of Integral Equations

    • The general form of an integral equation is ∫K(x, s)φ(s)ds = f(x), where K(x, s) is the kernel, φ(s) is the unknown function, and f(x) is the given function.

    Converting Between Differential and Integral Equations

    • Differential equations can often be converted into integral equations, and vice versa, using integration by parts or the fundamental theorem of calculus.

    Solving Boundary Value Problems

    • One method of solving a boundary value problem is to use the Green's function, which is a fundamental solution to the boundary value problem.

    Physics Applications

    • Physical laws, such as the laws of thermodynamics, electromagnetism, and quantum mechanics, often have an analog integral and differential form.

    Characteristics of Integral Equations

    • Integral equations contain integrals of the unknown function instead of derivatives.

    Convertible Equations

    • Many physical laws and equations, such as Maxwell's equations, can often be converted between differential and integral equations.

    Maxwell's Equations

    • Maxwell's equations often have an integral form in addition to their differential form, which is used to describe the behavior of electromagnetic fields.
