Extension to a variable coefficient; \theta -rule

The \theta -rule unifies the three mentioned schemes, \begin{equation} \frac{u^{n+1} - u^{n}}{\Delta t} = -a((1-\theta)t_n + \theta t_{n+1})((1-\theta) u^n + \theta u^{n+1}) \end{equation} or, \begin{equation} \frac{u^{n+1} - u^{n}}{\Delta t} = -(1-\theta) a(t_n)u^n - \theta a(t_{n+1})u^{n+1} \end{equation}
