Description

Pure and Applied Mathematics, Volume 56: Partial Differential Equations of Mathematical Physics provides a collection of lectures related to the partial differentiation of mathematical physics. This book covers a variety of topics, including waves, heat conduction, hydrodynamics, and other physical problems.

Comprised of 30 lectures, this book begins with an overview of the theory of the equations of mathematical physics that has its object the study of the integral, differential, and functional equations describing various natural phenomena. This text then examines the linear equations of the second order with real coefficients. Other lectures consider the Lebesgue–Fubini theorem on the possibility of changing the order of integration in a multiple integral. This book discusses as well the Dirichlet problem and the Neumann problem for domains other than a sphere or half-space. The final lecture deals with the properties of spherical functions.

This book is a valuable resource for mathematicians.
