2 24 Version of December 3, 20 CHAPTER. GREEN S FUNCTIONS As we saw in the previous chapter, the Green s function can be written down in terms of the eigenfunctions of d 2 /dx 2, with the specified boundary conditions, ) d 2 dx 2 λ n u n x) = 0,.7a) u n 0) = u n ) = 0..7b) The normaized soutions to these equations are 2 nπx nπ ) 2 u n x) = sin, λ n =, n =, 2,.....8) The factor 2/ is a normaization factor. From the genera theorem about eigenfunctions of a Hermitian operator given in Sec. 0.5, we have 2 0 dxsin nπx sin mπx = δ nm..9) Thus the Green s function for this probem is given by the eigenfunction expansion 2 nπx G k x, x sin sin nπx ) = n= k 2 ) nπ 2..0) But this form is not usuay very convenient for cacuation. Therefore we sove the differentia equation.6) directy. When x x the inhomogeneous term is zero. Since we must have G k 0, x ) = G k, x ) = 0,.) x < x : G k x, x ) = ax )sin kx,.2a) x > x : G k x, x ) = bx )sin kx )..2b) We determine the unknown functions a and b by noting that the derivative of G must have a discontinuity at x = x, which foows from the differentia equation.6). Integrating that equation just over that discontinuity we find or x +ǫ x ǫ ) d 2 dx dx 2 + k2 G k x, x ) =,.3) d dx G kx, x ) x=x +ǫ x=x ǫ =,.4) because 2ǫG k x, x ) 0 as ǫ 0. Athough d dx G kx, x ) is discontinuous at x = x, Gx, x ) is continuous there: Gx + ǫ, x ) Gx ǫ, x ) = x +ǫ x ǫ dx d dx Gx, x )

Therefore x=x +ǫ Gx, x ) = Oǫ) 0 as ǫ 0..6) x=x ǫ Now using the continuity of G and the discontinuity of G, we find two equations for the coefficient functions a and b: ax )sinkx = bx )sin kx ), ax )k coskx + = bx )k coskx )..7a).7b) It is easy to sove for a and b. The determinant of the coefficient matrix is D = sinkx sinkx ) k coskx k coskx ) = k sin k,.8) independent of x. Then the soutions are ax ) = D 0 sinkx ) k coskx ) = sin kx ),.9a) k sin k bx ) = D sinkx 0 sin kx k coskx = k sin k..9b) Thus we find a cosed form for the Green s function in the two regions: x < x : G k x, x ) = sin kx )sinkx,.20a) k sink x > x : G k x, x ) = sin kx sin kx ),.20b) k sink or compacty, G k x, x ) = k sin k sin kx < sin kx > ),.2) where we have introduced the notation x < is the esser of x, x, x > is the greater of x, x..22) Note that G k x, x ) = G k x, x) as is demanded on genera grounds, as a consequence of the reciprocity reation 0.0). Let us anayze the anaytic structure of G k x, x ) as a function of k. We see that simpe poes occur where k = nπ, n = ±, ±2, )

For k near nπ/, we have sin k = sin nπ + k nπ)cos nπ +... = k nπ) ) n..24) If we simpy sum over a the poes of G k, we obtain G k x, x ) = = = = n= n 0 n= n 0 n= n= ) sin nπx sin nπx nπx< n sin nπ sin nπx nπ k nπ ) sin nπx 2 nπx sin sin nπx sin nπ x > ) k nπ) [ nπ k nπ k 2 nπ ] k + nπ ) 2..25) This is in fact equa to G k, as seen in the eigenfunction expansion.0), because the difference is an entire function vanishing at infinity, which must be zero by Liouvie s theorem, see Sec Types of Boundary Conditions Three types of second-order, homogeneous differentia equations are commony encountered in physics the dimensionaity of space is not important): Hyperboic: 2 c 2 ) 2 t 2 ur, t) = 0,.26a) Eiptic: 2 + k 2) ur) = 0,.26b) Paraboic: 2 ) Tr, t) = 0..26c) κ t The first of these equations is the wave equation, the second is the Hemhotz equation, which incudes Lapace s equation as a specia case k = 0), and the third is the diffusion equation. The types of boundary conditions, specified on which kind of boundaries, necessary to uniquey specify a soution to these equations are given in Tabe.. Here by Cauchy boundary conditions we means that both the function u and its norma derivative u/ n is specified on the boundary. Here u = ˆn u,.27) n where ˆn is an outwardy directed) norma vector to the surface. As we have seen previousy, Dirichet boundary conditions refer to specifying the function u on the surface, Neumann boundary conditions refer to specifying the norma derivative u/ n on the surface, and mixed boundary conditions refer to

If the specified boundary vaues are zero, we say that the boundary conditions are homogeneous; otherwise, they are inhomogeneous. Exampe. To determine the vibrations of a string, described by 2 x 2 2 ) c 2 t 2 u = 0,.28) we must specify ux, 0), u x, 0).29) t at some initia time t = 0). The ine t = 0 is an open surface in the ct, x) pane..3 Expression of Fied in Terms of Green s Function Typicay, one determines the eigenfunctions of a differentia operator subject to homogeneous boundary conditions. That means that the Green s functions obey the same conditions. See Sec But suppose we seek a soution of L λ)ψ = S.30) subject to inhomogeneous boundary conditions. It cannot then be true that ψr) = dr )Gr,r )Sr )..3) V To see how to dea with this situation, et us consider the exampe of the three-dimensiona Hemhotz equation, 2 + k 2 )ψr) = Sr)..32)

GREEN S FUNCTIONS We seek the soution ψr) subject to arbitrary inhomogeneous Dirichet, Neumann, or mixed boundary conditions on a surface Σ encosing the voume V of interest. The Green s function G for this probem satisfies 2 + k 2 )Gr,r ) = δr r ),.33) subject to homogeneous boundary conditions of the same type as ψ satisfies. Now mutipy Eq..32) by G, Eq..33) by ψ, subtract, and integrate over the appropriate variabes: dr ) [ Gr,r ) 2 + k 2 )ψr ) ψr ) 2 + k 2 )Gr,r ) ] V = dr )[Gr,r )Sr ) ψr )δr r )]..34) V Here we have interchanged r and r in Eqs..32) and.33), and have used the reciprocity reation, Gr,r ) = Gr,r)..35) We have assumed that the eigenfunctions and hence the Green s function are rea.)

From this cosed form we may extract the eigenvaues and eigenfunctions of the spherica Besse differentia operator appearing in Eq..83).

We evauate this integra by contour methods. Because now k can coincide with an eigenvaue k, we must choose the contour appropriatey to define the Green s function. Suppose we choose the contour as shown in Fig.., passing beow the poe at k and above the poe at k. We cose the contour in the upper haf pane for the e ikρ and in the ower haf pane for the e ikρ term.

GREEN S FUNCTIONS.6 Green s Function for the Scaar Wave Equation The inhomogeneous scaar wave equation, 2 c 2 ) 2 t 2 ψr, t) = ρr, t),.3) requires boundary and initia conditions. The boundary conditions may be Dirichet, Neumann, or mixed. The initia conditions are Cauchy see Sec..2). Thus, we might specify at an initia time t = t 0 both ψr, t 0 ) and t ψr, t 0) at every point r in the region being considered. The corresponding Green s function Gr, t;r, t ) satisfies 2 c 2 ) 2 t 2 Gr, t;r, t ) = δr r )δt t )..4) It must satisfy the homogeneous form of the boundary conditions satisfied by ψ. Thus, if ψ has a specified vaue everywhere on the bounding surface, the corresponding Green s function must vanish on the surface. In cassica physics it is customary to adopt as initia conditions Gr, t;r, t ) G t r, t;r, t ) } = 0 if t < t..5) These then define the so-caed retarded Green s functions. They ensure that an effect occurs after its cause. In fact, however, this time asymmetry of the Green s function, which is not present in the wave equation, is not necessary; and in fact it is impossibe to maintain in reativistic quantum mechanics.) With such a Green s function, what takes the pace of the sef-adjointness property given in Sec. 0.8? Since the second time derivative is invariant under t t, we have in addition to the inhomogeneous equation.4) 2 c 2 ) 2 t 2 Gr, t;r, t ) = δr r )δt t )..6) Mutipy Eq..6) by Gr, t;r, t), Eq..4) by Gr, t;r, t ), subtract, and integrate over the voume being considered, and over t from to T, where T > t, t : T { dt dr) Gr, t;r, t ) 2 Gr, t;r, t ) V Gr, t;r, t ) 2 Gr, t;r, t ) Gr, t;r, t ) 2 c 2 t 2 Gr, t;r, t ) + Gr, t;r, t ) 2 } c 2 t 2 Gr, t;r, t ) = Gr, t ;r, t ) + Gr, t ;r, t )..7)
