Using Fourier series to prove $-\int_0^1 u_{xxx}u_x \eta = \int_0^1 (u_{xx})^2\eta - \int_0^1 \frac{1}{2} (u_x)^2 \eta_{xx}$
Let $u, \eta$ be smooth functions and $\eta$ compactly supported in $(0,1)$. Integrating by parts, we can easily prove $$-\int_0^1 u_{xxx}u_x \eta = \int_0^1 (u_{xx})^2\eta - \int_0^1 \frac{1}{2} (u_x)...
