We have that

$$\Omega^D = \nabla\cdot(n\nabla_\perp\phi) = n\nabla_\perp^2\phi + \nabla n\cdot \nabla_\perp \phi = n\nabla_\perp^2\phi + \nabla_\perp n\cdot \nabla_\perp \phi$$

Due to orthogonality we have that $$\nabla_\perp n\cdot \nabla_\perp \phi = \mathbf{e}^i\cdot \mathbf{e}^i(\partial_i n)(\partial_i \phi) = g^{xx}(\partial_x n)(\partial_x \phi) + g^{zz}(\partial_z n)(\partial_z \phi) = (\partial_x n)(\partial_x \phi) + \frac{1}{x^2}(\partial_z n)(\partial_z \phi)$$

We will use the Delp2 operator for the perpendicular Laplace operator (as the y-derivatives vanishes). We have

Delp2$(f)=g^{xx}\partial_x^2 f + g^{zz}\partial_z^2 f + 2g^{xz}\partial_x\partial_z f + G^1\partial_x f + G^3\partial_z f$

Using the cylinder geometry, we get that

Delp2$(f)=\partial_x^2 f + \frac{1}{x^2}\partial_z^2 f + \frac{1}{x}\partial_x f$

This gives

$$\Omega^D = \nabla\cdot(n\nabla_\perp\phi) = n\partial_x^2 \phi + n\frac{1}{x^2}\partial_z^2 \phi + n\frac{1}{x}\partial_x \phi + (\partial_x n)(\partial_x \phi) + \frac{1}{x^2}(\partial_z n)(\partial_z \phi)$$

NOTE:

  1. z must be periodic
  2. The field $f(\rho, \theta)$ must be of class infinity in $z=0$ and $z=2\pi$
  3. The field $f(\rho, \theta)$ must be single valued when $\rho\to0$
  4. The field $f(\rho, \theta)$ must be continuous in the $\rho$ direction with $f(\rho, \theta + \pi)$
  5. Eventual BC in $\rho$ must be satisfied
