Introduction
Linearity
A linear operator satisfies (for any two functions and ):
( + ) = ( ) + ( )
where and are arbitrary constants.
Example: , and
Notes: For Linear PDEs, the dependent variable and its partial
derivatives appear only to the first power.
Introduction
Homogeneity
For = , if = , it becomes = and it is called linear
homogenous equation.
Example:
Superposition Principle
If , , , are solutions to a linear homogenous PDE, then
