Description
Summary:An initial value problem to the viscous Burgers equation under the influence of an external forcing of distribution type is considered. The existence and uniqueness of weak solutions for it are investigated. To do this, we linearize the viscous Burgers equation and show the existence and uniqueness of common boundary function for the associated initial-boundary problems. Jump discontinuity of the spatial derivative of the solution makes a key role in determining large time asymptotics to the solutions. The explicit representation of the common boundary function and its asymptotic behavior are discussed for a specific case of the jump discontinuity. Here, the common boundary is obtained in terms of Associated Legendre functions of the first and second kind. For the general case, asymptotic behavior of the common boundary of the associated initial-boundary problems is used to determine the large time asymptotics for the Cauchy problem to the viscous Burgers equation.
