One may absorb a general phase factor, ', into the plane wave
by using

f(z,t) = A cos ( kz - &t + '),

~ ~ i(kz - &t)
f(z,t) = A e , (1.13)
~ i' ~
and A = A e . f(z,t) is real but f(z,t) is complex in
general.
There are two ways to characterize the general solution
to Eq.(1.1). The first is to write
+ ~
~ 1
f(z,t) = *dk A(k) ei(kz - &(k)t). (1.14)

f(z,0) = *dk [A e + A* e-ikz], (1.15)

!f(z,0) +
1 ~ +ikz ~
!t = *dk(-i&) [A e - A* e-ikz]. (1.16)
2)( 2% -+
We can invert these using the Fourier theorem and solve for
~
A(k):
~ 1 + .- !f(z,0)10
i
A(k) = *dz e-ikz -, f(z,0) + &(k) !t 0/, (1.17)
) ( 2% -+
1.4
!f(z,0)
Thus, if we know f(z,0) and , we can solve for the wave
!t
at later times.
The second form of a general solution is given by
