Nested cases, alignment and numbering
I don't think that much is gained by aligning the three equations on their respective =
symbols. I'd left-align the expressions, using a numcases
environment.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{newtxtext,newtxmath,mathrsfs} % optional
\usepackage{cases} % for 'numcases' env.
\begin{document}
\begin{numcases}{}
\partial_t u(\vec{x},t) - \alpha\Delta u(\vec{x},t) = f(\vec{x}),
&$(\vec{x},t)\in\Omega\times J$, \\
u(\vec{x},t) = 0,
&$(\vec{x},t)\in\partial\Omega\times J$, \\
u(\vec{x},0) =
\left\{\begin{array}{@{}ll@{}}
\rho, &\vec{x} \in\mathscr{T} \\
0, &\vec{x} \in\mathscr{B}\setminus \mathscr{T}
\end{array}\right.
&$\vec{x} \in\mathscr{B}$
\end{numcases}
\end{document}
With the use of the empheq
package:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{empheq}
\begin{document}
\begin{empheq}[left=\empheqlbrace]{align}
\partial_t u(\vec{x},t) - \alpha \Delta u(\vec{x},t)
&= f(\vec{x}), &&(\vec{x},t) \in \Omega \times J, \\
%
u(\vec{x},t) &= 0, &&(\vec{x},t) \in \partial \Omega \times J, \\
%
u(\vec{x},0)
& = \begin{cases}
\rho, &\vec{x} \in T \\
0, &\vec{x} \in B \setminus T
\end{cases}
&&\vec{x} \in B
\end{empheq}
\end{document}
