Hypoelliptic operator

Index Hypoelliptic operator

In the theory of partial differential equations, a partial differential operator P defined on an open subset is called hypoelliptic if for every distribution u defined on an open subset V \subset U such that Pu is C^\infty (smooth), u must also be C^\infty. [1]

Smoothness

In mathematical analysis, the smoothness of a function is a property measured by the number of derivatives it has that are continuous.

Wave equation

The wave equation is an important second-order linear partial differential equation for the description of waves—as they occur in classical physics—such as mechanical waves (e.g. water waves, sound waves and seismic waves) or light waves.
