This video demonstrates how to solve Lagrange's partial differential equation by using characteristic equations (Cauchy equations). The method involves writing the characteristic equations, integrating them to find two independent integrals, and then using initial conditions to determine the arbitrary function. The solution process shows how to handle cases where coefficients are separate by starting with DX/DY, adding appropriate terms to make denominators zero, and integrating to obtain the general solution. The final step involves substituting initial conditions to find the specific solution.

PDE CSIR NET July 2026 Memory-based Question
Added:Hello everyone. Welcome to the part 10 on the memory based questions of the CS and net July 2026. In this video, I will solve the questions related to the partial differential equation. Myself Dr. Harish Kar, you can follow and subscribe my YouTube channel.
The question I had received from the student is related to the Lagrange equation. How you can solve the Lagrange equation? It's a very very simple. You can also solve with the help of the Cauchy equation. You can write the Cauchy equations or the Lagrange equation. DX over and so on.
Then, you can clearly say if I start from that because the coefficient of the XYZ are separate, I can start with the DX over DY.
Fine. So, you get a negative 2Z.
Plus Y, so it's a minus of Y. So, if I simply add DZ over Z, so Y and Y cancel.
2Z, it's will be the minus of Z. So, I can add 2 into DY over Y. So, clearly say the required denominator will be zero. Therefore, I can integrate that.
It will be log X.
Z and it's a Y squared is my constant.
Fine. So, I can say X Z Y squared is my e to the power c1 is another constant.
Now, it involves all those X, Y, and Z.
I can substitute direct value. You will get X. X and Y are same. So, that will be X cubed is equal to c1. But, c1 is always a constant number. But, you have a constant number. Yeah, there is no need to find c1.
Then, I have a second expression that you have c2 in the name say. Fine. So, we can do that expression to make it all. Now, you can see it's a 2Z.
Here is a minus Z minus Z. So, I can write as a Uh you can see it's a X 2 ZX is a 4x ^ 2 Z. If I multiply by first quantity by 2x, you can see it's a 2x DX. The belly expression can be 2 2 = 4 x ^ 2 Z plus 2x^2 y. The 4x ^ 2 Z minus can be clearly up to a plus of Z and here minus of yz or minus of yz. It's missing minus of me dy can be a. So, again you can see the denominator will be zero.
Now, you can integrate them. It's a x ^ 2 by 2. 2 and 2 cancel plus Z minus y is my another constant. Fine. Now, you have the two arbitrary constants. You can write x ^ 2 plus Z minus y is a function of x y z ^ 2. Now, I can substitute the value of the initial condition. Z of x {comma} x x ^ 2 Z will be 1. Y will be x, which is equal to phi of x ^ 3. Fine.
x y z ^ 2 x y z ^ 2. So, I can taken A is my x ^ 3. The value can be ready up to here. A raised to power 2 by 3 plus 1 minus A raised to power 1 over 3, which is equal to phi of A. I can substitute the value in this equation. The after equation can be x ^ 2 plus Z minus y, which is equal to phi of x z y ^ 2. I can substitute x y z ^ 2 at this point. x y z ^ power 2 by 3 plus 1 minus x z y squared power 1 1/3. Now you can see use the initial condition and get the value of alpha. X Z is my alpha cube. Y is equal to root 8. Fine? It will be x z y squared. X z y squared is root 8 y squared into alpha cube. That will be 8 alpha cube raised to power 2 by is 4 alpha squared. Plus 1 minus is a It will be 2 alpha cube. So Q will be cancelled out. It's a 2 into alpha. One and one will be cancelled. Your target is to find alpha cube. Minus 4 alpha squared plus 2 alpha which is equal to root 8.
Root 8 will be 2 root 2 is the right answer of the So you can see that a very simple by using the Lagrange equation you can find the two values and get the simplest way to solve this problem.
Fine? We will see the next lecture very soon. Till then, you can subscribe my YouTube channels, like and comment on this video as well. Best of luck students. Happy learning.
