https://www.lehman.edu/faculty/dgaranin/Mathematical_Physics/...Partial differential equations (PDE) are equations for functions of several variables that contain partial derivatives. Typical PDEs are Laplace equation ∆φ@x,y,…D 0 (D is the Laplace operator), Poisson equation (Laplace equation with a source) ∆φ@x,y,…D f@x,y,…D, wave equation ∂ t 2φ@t,x,y,…D−c2∆φ@t,x,y,…D 0, heat conduction / diffusion equation ∂
