Now we can use the chain rule to rewrite the left hand side: \begin{equation} \gamma \ppderiv{u(L \hat x)}{\hat x}{2} \underbrace{\ppderiv{\hat x}{(L \hat x)}{2}}_{=L^{-2}} = - F u(L \hat x). \end{equation} Rearranging the factors gives the final result: \begin{equation} \ptderiv{\hat u (\hat x)}{\hat x}{2} = - \frac{F L^2}{\gamma} \hat u(\hat x) \equiv - \lambda \hat u(\hat x). \end{equation} \section*{Problem 2} \bibliography{include/citations} \end{document}
