<math>=\frac{1}{(2\pi)^2}\frac{2}{|\mathbf{x}-\mathbf{x}'|}\frac{2\pi}{4} \left[2\delta(|\mathbf{x}-\mathbf{x}'|+c(t-t'))-2\delta(|\mathbf{x}-\mathbf{x}'|-c(t-t'))\right]\Theta</math><br><br>
<math>=\frac{1}{(2\pi)^2}\frac{2}{|\mathbf{x}-\mathbf{x}'|}\frac{2\pi}{4} \left[2\delta(|\mathbf{x}-\mathbf{x}'|+c(t-t'))-2\delta(|\mathbf{x}-\mathbf{x}'|-c(t-t'))\right]\Theta</math><br><br>
But the term <math>2\delta(|\mathbf{x}-\mathbf{x}'|+c(t-t'))\rightarrow 0 \quad\forall\quad t>t'</math><br><br>
But the term <math>2\delta(|\mathbf{x}-\mathbf{x}'|+c(t-t'))\rightarrow 0 \quad\forall\quad t>t'</math><br><br>
∴<math> G(x,x')=\frac{-1}{4\pi}\quad \frac{\delta(|\mathbf{x}-\mathbf{x}'|-c(t-t'))}{|\mathbf{x}-\mathbf{x}'|}</math><br>
∴<math> G(x,x')=\frac{-1}{4\pi}\quad \frac{\delta(|\mathbf{x}-\mathbf{x}'|-c(t-t'))}{|\mathbf{x}-\mathbf{x}'|}</math><br><br>
Now to get the G<sub>1</sub>(x,x') in the half-space with z>0 with the boundary condition G<sub>1</sub> at x<sub>3</sub>=z=0 we take the difference:<br>
<math>G_1(x,x')=\frac{-1}{4\pi}\left(\frac{\delta(|\mathbf{x}-\mathbf{x}'|-c(t-t'))}{|\mathbf{x}-\mathbf{x}'|}-\frac{\delta(|\mathbf{x}-\mathbf{x}'-2z\hat{e_3}|-c(t-t'))}{|\mathbf{x}-\mathbf{x}'-2z\hat{e_3}|}\right)</math><br><br>
Now use Green's theorem:<br>
Let<math>\mathbf{F}=A(x)\mathbf{\nabla}G_1(x,x')-G_1(x,x')\mathbf{\nabla}A(x)
