Abstract
At last we have ascended to the ultimate rung of the dimensional ladder (at least for those of us living in a three-dimensional universe): partial differential equations in physical space. As in the one- and two-dimensional settings developed in the preceding chapters, the main protagonists are the Laplace and Poisson equations, modeling equilibrium configurations of solid bodies; the three-dimensional wave equation, governing vibrations of solids, liquids, and electromagnetic waves; and the three-dimensional heat equation, modeling spatial diffusion processes.
