While Eq. is commonly written as an integral equation, we use the integrodifferential form to highlight the relationship to Eq. For convenience, we also extend the upper limits of the integrals from t to ∞. This has no effect since the boundary conditions and homogeneity of the equations for t<0 imply that P (t<0) =Q (t<0) =0.
