Third oder PDE. Solve for \(u(x,y)\) \[ u_t + u_{xxx} = 0 \] With initial conditions \begin {align*} u(x,0)&=f(x) \end {align*}

Mathematica

ClearAll["Global`*"]; 
pde =  D[u[x, t], t] == -D[u[x, t], {x, 3}]; 
ic  = u[x, 0] == f[x]; 
sol =  AbsoluteTiming[TimeConstrained[DSolve[{pde, ic}, u[x, t], {x, t}], 60*10]];
 

\[\left \{\left \{u(x,t)\to \frac {\int _{-\infty }^{\infty }e^{i K[1] \left (t K[1]^2+x\right )} \int _{-\infty }^{\infty } e^{-i x K[1]} f(x) \, dxdK[1]}{2 \pi }\right \}\right \}\]
