Partial differential equations can describe everything from planetary motion to plate tectonics, but they’re notoriously hard to solve. Unless you’re a physicist or an engineer, there really ...

Partial differential equations (PDEs) are a class of mathematical problems that represent the interplay of multiple variables, and therefore have predictive power when it comes to complex physical ...

Some equations are beautiful because they reveal unexpected relationships between different subjects. The Loewner differential equation, introduced by Charles Loewner in 1923, describes the time ...

Marshall University's differential analyzer model was unveiled during a public demonstration Saturday, May 2, at the Francis-Booth Experimental Theatre on the Huntington campus.

Most of us, having learned the subject in the traditional way, have a limited toolkit of examples that we truly understand. Unlike Maple and Mathematica, products that solve differential equations ...

The honor, like a Nobel Prize for mathematics, was given this year to Luis Caffarelli for his work on partial differential equations. By Kenneth Chang As a mathematician, Luis A. Caffarelli of the ...
