C (x, 0) = C0 (x) as initial condition. It is convenient to consider the excess quantity u (x, t) = C (x, t) Cs (x) Using (1)-(3) we see that u satises u 2u =D 2 t x with

Let m be the eigenfunctions of the diusion operator d2 /dx2 . Since the operator is dissipative, the correponding eigenvalues are non-positive. We denote them by 2 km (k real) d2 m (x) 2 = km m (x) dx2

Any function of the form u = Am (t) m satises then eq.(5), provided that Am (t) satises the ordinary dierential equation dAm 2 = Dkm Am dt or Am (t) = Am (0) eDkm t

On the other hand, in general, functions u of this form do not satisfy the initial condition. To satisfy this condition we seek for solutions in the form of an innite series of m s (this is legitimate since the equation is linear) 2

To compute Am (0) we use the orthogonality property of m , guaranted by the fact that the diusion operator is self-adjoint : dx (x)m (x) = 0 n = m n

Multiplying both sides of (9) by (x) and integrating over x we thus obtain m dx (x)u0 (x) n Nn

which combined with (7b) and (8) yields the solution dx (x)u0 (x) n m (x) Nm

We now compute m and km explicitly for the boundary conditions (5b). On inspecting (6) we see that m must be of the form m (x) = Ccos km x + Dsin km x Applied to x = 0 and x = this leads to
0 = m (0) = C 0 = m ( ) = Dsin km 3
