Solving 1st order PDE including convolution

I'm studying Van Kampen's "Stochastic processes in physics and chemistry" and stuck to some exercise (p.78): That is, solving \begin{equation} \frac{\partial P(y, t)}{\partial t}=\int_{-\...

General solution for linear Volterra-like integral equation?

A linear Volterra integral equation looks like this (see the wiki) \begin{align} x(t) = f(t) + \int_0^t K(t, s)x(s)~\mathrm{d}s. \end{align} If the Kernel function $K$ is of the form $K(t, s) = K(...

Prove that the convolution of the signals and its time reversal is an odd signal.

Suppose signal $g(t)$ is obtained by time reversal of signal $f(t)$ for all times $t$. Prove that the convolution of the signals $f$ and $g$ is an odd signal. My attempt at proof Given: $g(t)=f(-t)\...

Calculate $\sum_{n=1}^\infty (1-\alpha) \alpha^nP^{*n}(x)$

$$ \mbox{Let}\quad P'(x)=\sum_{j=1}^n a_j\frac{a^jx^{j-1}}{(j-1)!}e^{-ax},x\geq 0 $$ be the density function of a mixture of Erlangs and let $\alpha\in(0,1)$: Is is possible to determine an analytic ...

Is there a good method to recover the original functions from their convolution?

Occasionally, I failed to detect the function which is just the convolution of two simple functions. For instance $$ 2a\sin{at}*\sin{at}=\sin{at}-at\cos{at} $$ One possible way is to observe the ...

Solving the integro-differential equation (Cauchy problem) using Laplace transform

I am stuck trying to solve this equation using Laplace transform: $$ y''(t)+2y(t)=\displaystyle 3\int_0^t (t−u)y(u)du\\ y(0)=2 , y'(0)=3 $$ I got stuck after performing the Laplace transformation ...

defective renewal equation

I am reading this paper of Lin and Willmot. I dont understand how they come up with formula $2.7$ and why $\tilde{\phi}(s)=\frac{\tilde{H}(s)}{1+\beta-\tilde{g}(s)}$. Can someone help me? So i want to ...

Convolution equation equals a constant

How would you solve this? I did the standard way of solving questions like these - I took the Laplace of both sides and used the convolution identity. But the solution I got, $f(t)=3+t^2/2$, does not ...

Solve using Convolution theorem (Inverse Laplace)

Using Convolution theorem, find: $$L^{-1} [\frac{s^2}{(s^2+1)^3}]$$ Note: This was an exam question and was worth "3" marks only, so it should not be so "long" I suppose. So my ...

Using convolution to derive first passage probability

I'm reading through Sidney Redner's lectures on first passage processes (lectures at this link) and I've been stuck on the convolution steps he takes to go from equation (3.1) to (3.2). He starts by ...

Is there a 3D version of the convolution and cross-correlation theorems for the Laplace transform?

The Laplace-transform version of the convolution and cross-correlation theorems is essentially the same as the "usual" (Fourier-transform) version: if $\mathcal{L}[f(t)]$ is the Laplace ...

Finding the relation between Laplace and the CTFT

Let us take a system where the input is $V_{i}(t)$ and output is $V_{o}(t)$ and the impulse response of the system be $I(t)$ where $t$ represents time domain and $w$ be frequency. we get $\tag{1}V_{o}(...

Laplace transform of translated convolution

I need to calculate the Laplace transform $\mathcal{L_t}$ of the function $$ h(t)=\int_0^{\tau-t}f(\tau-t-u)g(u)du, $$ in terms of $\mathcal{L_t}[(f\ast g)(t)]$. Here, I do not know $g$ and $\tau>t&...
