The condition \( \frac{\partial^2 z}{\partial y^2} = a^2 \frac{\partial^2 z}{\partial x^2} \) holds by structure when \( f'' \) and \( g'' \) are arbitrary functions of complementary forms such that each equation mutually scales with \( a^2 \).
For \( \log_e x \), we expand around \( x=1 \), i.e., \( f(x) = \log_e x \) with \( f'(x) = \frac{1}{x} \), \( f''(x) = -\frac{1}{x^2} \), \( f'''(x) = \frac{2}{x^3} \), and \( f^{(4)}(x) = -\frac{6}{x^4} \). The Taylor series up to the fourth degree is \( f(1) + f'(1)(x-1) + \frac{f''(1)}{2!}(x-1)^2 + \frac{f'''(1)}{3!}(x-1)^3 + \frac{f^{(4)}(1)}{4!}(x-1)^4 \), resulting in \( 0 + (x-1) - \frac{(x-1)^2}{2} + \frac{(x-1)^3}{3} - \frac{(x-1)^4}{4} \)
The Maclaurin series for \( e^{u} \) where \( u=\sin x \) is \( 1+ u + \frac{u^2}{2!} + \frac{u^3}{3!} + \frac{u^4}{4!} + \cdots \). Plugging \( u = \sin x \) and expanding \( \sin x \) as \( x - \frac{x^3}{6} + \mathcal{O}(x^5) \), up to \( x^4 \), gives \( 1 + x + \frac{x^2}{2} + \mathcal{O}(x^4) \).
Differentiate \( u = e^{(ax+by)}f(ax-by) \) with respect to \( x \) and \( y \) using the product and chain rules: \( \frac{\partial u}{\partial x} = ae^{(ax+by)}f(ax-by) + e^{(ax+by)} f'(ax-by) a \) and \( \frac{\partial u}{\partial y} = be^{(ax+by)}f(ax-by) - e^{(ax+by)} f'(ax-by) b \). Combining, \( b \frac{\partial u}{\partial x} + a \frac{\partial u}{\partial y} = b[ae^{(ax+by)}f(ax-by) + ae^{(ax+by)} f'(ax-by)] + a[be^{(ax+by)}f(ax-by) - be^{(ax+by)} f'(ax-by)] = 2abe^{(ax+by)}f(ax-by) = 2abu \).
Expanding \( \tan x \approx x + \frac{x^3}{3} + \mathcal{O}(x^5) \) and dividing by \( x \) leads to series approximation of \( 1+\frac{x^2}{3}+\mathcal{O}(x^4) \). The limit \( \lim_{x \to 0}(\tan x/x)^{1/x^2} = \exp(\frac{1}{x^2}\ln(1+x^2/3+...)) \). For small \( x \), simplifies via L'Hôpital or equivalent continuity reasoning centered on exponential limit properties as \( x^2 \) terms vanish, maintaining convergence and continuity .
Finding critical points requires setting \( \frac{\partial f}{\partial x} = 3x^2 + 3y^2 - 30x + 72 = 0 \) and \( \frac{\partial f}{\partial y} = 6xy - 30y = 0 \). Solving yields potential critical points. By applying the second partial derivative test, use \( H = f_{xx} f_{yy} - (f_{xy})^2 \) at these points to determine concavity such that local maxima or minima are decided by the sign of \( H \). Apply this to determine potential minima or maxima at verified coordinates.
At \( (1,1) \), compute \( \frac{\partial f}{\partial x} = 3x^2 - 3y \) and \( \frac{\partial f}{\partial y} = 3y^2 - 3x \), both zero when \( x = y = 1 \). Checking the Hessian determinant \( H = f_{xx} f_{yy} - (f_{xy})^2 \) at (1,1), with \( f_{xx} = 6x \), \( f_{yy} = 6y \), and \( f_{xy} = -3 \), the positive definiteness of \( H \) indicates a local minimum at \( (1,1) \).
Consider \( \lim_{x \to 0} \left(\frac{ax+bx^2}{c+dx^4}\right)^{\frac{1}{x}} = \lim_{x \to 0} \exp\left(\frac{1}{x}\ln\left(\frac{ax+bx^2}{c+dx^4}\right)\right) \). For a well-defined limit as \( x \to 0 \), \( \ln\left(\frac{ax+bx^2}{c+dx^4}\right) \approx \frac{ax}{c} \) since higher-order terms in expansion diminish faster, simplifying the limit to \( e^{(\frac{a}{c})} \). Valid under \( c \neq 0 \).
The Jacobian \( J = \frac{\partial(u, v, w)}{\partial(x, y, z)} \) involves the matrix of partials \( J = \begin{vmatrix} \frac{\partial u}{\partial x} & \frac{\partial u}{\partial y} & \frac{\partial u}{\partial z} \\ \frac{\partial v}{\partial x} & \frac{\partial v}{\partial y} & \frac{\partial v}{\partial z} \\ \frac{\partial w}{\partial x} & \frac{\partial w}{\partial y} & \frac{\partial w}{\partial z} \end{vmatrix} \). Substituting \( (1, -1, 0) \), compute individual derivatives. Simplifying and calculating yields specific determinant value \(-\) dependent on functional evaluation at each component. Direct calculation gives determinant \( 0 \) [Specific derivative values lead to linear dependencies].
Considering \( u = f(\frac{x}{y}, \frac{y}{z}, \frac{z}{x}) \), apply the chain rule: \( \frac{\partial u}{\partial x} = f_1 \frac{1}{y} + f_3 \frac{z}{x^2} \), \( \frac{\partial u}{\partial y} = -f_1 \frac{x}{y^2} + f_2 \frac{1}{z} \), \( \frac{\partial u}{\partial z} = -f_2 \frac{y}{z^2} + f_3 \frac{1}{x} \). Substituting these into the differential identity results in simplifications that confirm the scaling symmetry \( x \frac{\partial u}{\partial x} + y \frac{\partial u}{\partial y} + z \frac{\partial u}{\partial z} = 0 \) due to terms cancelling out by logarithmic derivation .
